GOV. RITTER & ARIZONA GOV. JANET NAPOLITANO SET FRIENDLY BET OVER ROCKIES/D-BACKS NLCS

 

With the Rockies and Diamondbacks opening their National League Championship Series tonight, Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter and Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano have set a friendly wager on the outcome.

 

If the Diamondbacks win the best-of-seven series, Gov. Ritter will wear a Sedona red jersey and have his picture taken in it. If the Rockies win and continue their "Rocktober" roll, Gov. Napolitano will sport the purple and black Colorado jersey.

 

The first two games of the series will be played in Arizona tonight and Friday night. The series resumes Sunday night in Denver.
