Did the Rockies lose again Saturday night? Is the Pope an American Catholic?
Actually, “lose” is a misnomer. The Rockies were crushed, 21-0, by the Padres in the Rockies’ worst game in what is quickly becoming the worst season in franchise history.
The Padres ripped off 24 hits, including five home runs. Colorado’s comatose offense countered with five hits.
Manager Bud Black characterized it as “a tough loss, but it’s just one game.”
“The guys who had tough games wear it,” Black said. “(Starter) Bradley (Blaylock) feels horrible. (Reliever) Juan (Mejia) feels horrible.
