a rough stretch

Not a great stretch. 2-5 lately. There's no sugarcoating it. Also weighing on the score: getting outscored by 13 in a week. That tanks the score.

Rockies News

The Colorado Rockies' struggles continued as they fell 5-4 to the Arizona Diamondbacks, exacerbated by lapses in their offensive strategy and starting pitching. TJ Rumfield finally broke the team's power drought with a home run in the eighth inning, but it wasn't enough to overcome the self-inflicted wounds that have plagued them all season. Compounding their woes, Willi Castro missed the game due to back stiffness, leaving an already faltering lineup even thinner. Adding salt to the wound, the Rockies also lost Blaine Crim to waivers, a move that highlights the growing list of missed opportunities and challenges this team is facing. With a record of 20-32, they need to find ways to string together hits and tighten up their play before the losses pile up even higher.
