Rockies' Recent Performance


In their recent games, the Rockies have shown a mixed bag of performances. They secured a win against the Milwaukee Brewers with strong hitting and pitching, but also faced challenges in other matches. The team's batting average has fluctuated, with notable highs such as .364 in one game and lows like .156 in another. This inconsistency has been mirrored by their pitching staff, which delivered an impressive 2.0 ERA in one outing but struggled with an 11.0 ERA in another.


Defensively, errors have been a concern for Colorado, particularly evident when they committed four errors against Milwaukee. However, they demonstrated resilience by bouncing back with improved fielding performances subsequently.
