The Houston Astros once again bested the Rockies in the finale of the Mexico City Series, closing out the weekend abroad with an 8-2 victory.
Astros, by the win, bumped the Rockies to 7-21 on the season, burying them deeper into last place in the NL West. The Colorado Rockies’ lackluster start to the 2024 regular season continued Sunday, reaching new heights of brutality down in Mexico.
The Colorado Rockies have trailed in all 28 of their games so far this regular season, making them the second team in MLB history to achieve that unwelcome feat.
Colorado may have a better record than the 6-22 Chicago White Sox and 6-23 Miami Marlins, but not by much. And looking beyond the win-loss column, the Rockies have found a way to struggle in each and every game so far this season.
Just Baseball’s Patrick Lyons noted Sunday that the Rockies have trailed at some point in all 28 of their games to start the season. They are the first team to achieve that feat since 1910 and only the second in the history of baseball.
