SAN FRANCISCO — The Colorado Rockies will attempt to follow in the successful footsteps of the New York Mets when they begin a three-game series against the San Francisco Giants on Monday night at AT&T Park.
The Rockies are coming off a deflating, three-game sweep at the hands of the National League West-leading Los Angeles Dodgers, and Colorado blew a five-run lead in the Sunday finale.
The Mets likewise were roughed up by the Dodgers, losing four straight, before heading to San Francisco on Friday.
New York proceeded to turn things around dramatically, outscoring the floundering Giants 24-8 in a three-game sweep of their own.
