“A mere five-game losing streak?” snort the Rockies, derisively. “Here: hold my beer.” For Colorado has lost seven in a row, and indeed have plummeted like stone after starting the season 11-3. They have won just twice in the fourteen games since then, and will be as glad to see another struggling team in the shape of Arizona, as we are to see them. Their recent struggles have been like the D-backs’ in some ways, most notably the struggles of the offense on the road. They have managed only nine runs in total over their last five games away from Coors.
