The Colorado Rockies are once again looking to avoid the sweep after dropping the first two games of this series to the Cincinnati Reds. They will also be looking to avoid back-to-back sweeps for the second time in as many weeks as they continue to trudge through a historically bad season.
The Rockies’ 4-22 start to the season is their worst start through 26 games in franchise history, and it is only the second time in franchise history that they have lost 22 of 26 games at any point in a season (also: June 18-July 19, 2001).
