Vic Lombardi's 7 Tweets During The Rockies First Spring Training Game
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (CBS4) - CBS4's Vic Lombardi took a trip to Salt River Fields at Talking Stick in Arizona to catch the Rockies first Spring Training game on Wednesday.
The Rockies faced off against the Arizona Diamondbacks, and for Lombardi there was a sound he realized he's really been missing since the baseball season ended last year.

Wilin Rosario got the first hit of Spring Training for the Rockies:
Baby Bull can still rope. Just produced the Rockies first hit of the game. He's playing first base today. Learning how to scoop.

A few innings later, Lombardi got a bit annoyed by Dinger.

And he spoke with outfielder Carlos Gonzalez:
Had a great convo with Cargo. He's eating healthy this year, gone from 235 to 215. Looks all swole. Says he'll be ready to play next week.
