Mets 13, Rockies 5: Six home runs sink the Rockies

There was some life late in the game, but it was too late

The glow of a three-game sweep and a string of close games went out this weekend, as the Colorado Rockies were swept by the formidable New York Mets and outscored 24-6. Even “Banana Ball” rules wouldn’t have made things much closer. The ball refused to stay in the yard, as the Mets hit six home runs against Rockies’ pitching. And the Rockies offense could not score with runners in scoring...

The Rockies will look to avoid the sweep

The Colorado Rockies are looking to avoid being swept on the heels of sweeping the Miami Marlins. They held the New York Mets to a score of 4-2 on Friday night — which only broke because Francisco Lindor doubled to drive in Juan Soto and Pete Alonso in the ninth — but were drummed yesterday by a score of 8-1 after going 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position (their only run came on a Ryan McMahon...

Offense stalls out as pitching left on shaky ground

It was a late night at Coors Field as the Colorado Rockies (12-52) welcomed fans for a Brenton Doyle bobblehead. However, the promotion likely ended up being the highlight as the offense struggled to produce, and the pitching couldn’t contain the New York Mets (41-24) in an 8-1 loss.

Rockies get a second chance to solve Clay Holmes behind Germán Márquez

Missed opportunities spoiled an otherwise competitive game for the Colorado Rockies (12-51) on Friday against the New York Mets (40-24). Now, the Rockies shuffled the rotation slightly for the rest of the weekend as they look to rebound on Saturday night. Germán Márquez will start tonight with Chase Dollander starting tomorrow.

The Rockies put up a fight, but a late Lindor double sank their hopes of victory

The Colorado Rockies battled throughout the game, but a few missed opportunities kept the New York Mets in the contest long enough for Francisco Lindor to come through with a late, game-deciding hit that sent the Coors Field crowd home disappointed.

Fresh off a sweep, the Rox head back home to welcome Ryan Ritter to the Bigs.

Hey, this seems familiar.

And it should! It was about this time last week that the Mets and Rockies locked horns. That contest saw the Mets secure the win fairly easily, but that was then.

After all, your Colorado Rockies are more motivated than ever. On the heels of their first road sweep in what seems like ages, the Rox have a chance to turn their winning streak to four with a...

Colorado Rockies news and links for Friday, June 6, 2025

When Charlie Blackmon retired at the end of last season, the Colorado Rockies and their fans knew he would leave a vacancy that couldn’t be replaced.

Whether it was his work ethic, quiet leadership, goofy sense of humor, or his ability to make fans sing “toooooniiiight” on his walk-up song louder than they sing “Take Me Out to the Ballgame,” Chuck Nazty was just special.

A talented hitter, a...

When the Colorado Rockies signed Mickey Moniak in March, it seemed unclear exactly what his role with the team would be.

With Brenton Doyle and Jordan Beck penciled in as starters, Moniak would take part in the competition for playing time in right field, attempting to beat out familiar face Sean Bouchard and fellow newcomer Nick Martini.

As the season has continued, though, Martini has departed the...
