Rockies hit embarrassing low not seen since 1950

The Colorado Rockies have just six wins as of May 11. Yes, after six weeks of the 2025 season, the Rockies are 6-33 and on pace for a historically bad record. 

To make things worse, the Rockies just lost on Saturday night by a score of 21-0 against the San Diego Padres. And no, it wasn’t a football game being played at Coors Field despite the three-touchdown victory for San Diego. 

The Padres scored five runs in the first inning then one each in the second and third before scoring eight in the fourth and four in the fifth. In total, the Padres had 21 runs on 24 hits, and Padres starter Stephen Kolek tossed a complete-game five-hit shutout. 

So, things are not going well in Colorado. 

How bad has it been for the Rockies? Well, one tidbit from OptaSTATS shows exactly how rough it has been. 

‘The Rockies have allowed 55 runs over the last 3 days. That’s the most any MLB team has allowed over a 3-day span since the St. Louis Browns allowed 56 from June 7-9, 1950 (all at Fenway Park).’

Yes, that is how bad it has been. 

On Thursday, the Rockies lost to the Detroit Tigers, 11-1. On Friday, the Rockies lost to the Padres 13-9 before losing by 21(!!) on Saturday. 

To go one step further, the Rockies gave up 10 runs to the Tigers on Thursday, so it’s been a forgettable homestand for Colorado. 

Here’s one more: The Rockies scored 21 runs combined in the past six games, and the Padres scored 21 runs in just one game. 

So, it’s been a dreadful year for the Rockies, and things sure don’t seem to be getting any better.
