Home wins key to 2016 success, Weiss says

DENVER -- Rockies manager Walt Weiss is hoping his club returns to its former dominance at Coors Field.

Weiss, appearing on MLB Network's "High Heat" with Chris Russo, was asked about the team's road performance. But Weiss pointed out that the problem last season, when the Rockies finished last in the National League West, was its 36-45 home mark. The franchise has just once had a winning record on the road, but has made three playoff appearances in its 23 seasons by dominating at home.

"We talk about the advantages -- another team has to come into a slightly different environment to play against us," Weiss said.
