San Diego — The Rockies’ annual June swoon is now in full bloom, arriving on the heels of their mid-May malaise.
With starter Chad Bettis struggling again and clutch hits coming few and far between, the Rockies lost 4-3 to San Diego Saturday night at Petco Park. Colorado is 0-for-June, having lost four straight. Since their five-game winning streak ended on May 17, they are 4-13. And Petco continues to dog the Rockies. It’s a place where they have now lost 21 of their last 27 games.
The sixth inning symbolized the Rockies’ struggles. DJ LeMahieu drew a walk off San Diego starter Andrew Cashner to load the bases.
