Colorado Rockies: Breaking down the remaining schedule
Over the weekend, the Colorado Rockies completed a historic run by sweeping a four-game series at the Atlanta Braves. Not only was it the first time the Rockies had ever won a four-game series in Atlanta, it matched a Major League record of 46 straight games played against teams with a .500 or above record.
The Colorado Rockies finished the 46-game stretch dating back to June 25, an astonishing 30-16, raising their record to 68-56 and only a half-game back of the Arizona Diamondbacks in the National League West and into a three-way tie in the Wild Card with the Philadelphia Phillies and the Milwaukee Brewers entering play Monday.
