The Rockies are becoming pretty predictable in 2025. Wednesday was no different. Another game, another disappointing offensive showing, another great performance from Colorado’s starting pitcher and another rough outing for the bullpen.
Zach Wheeler dominated the Rockies bats and Kyle Freeland shined, but the Rockies lost 5-1 to Philadelphia on Wednesday night. Only five games in, this same outcome is getting old fast as the Rockies dropped to 1-4.
2 touchdowns of strikeouts
The Rockies struck out 14 times. Yeah. Fourteen times. Michael Toglia led the swing-and-miss parade with four strikeouts, Ryan McMahon added three and Ezequiel Tovar had two of his own.
