First the good news: The Rockies just concluded their first winning homestand of the season, going 4-3.
Now for the bad news, mixed in with a dose of harsh reality: They lost 8-5 to Miami on Sunday at Coors Field, concluding the homestand with two losses to the Marlins. Following a familiar script, pitching let the Rockies down and their bats went silent over the last five innings.
The Marlins, at 31-47, have the worst record in the National League, but they managed to win two of three from the Rockies at Coors after taking two of three against them at Miami in late April.
