The Rockies returned home to LoDo Wednesday night searching for their lost offensive mojo and counting on the solid pitching that has been a silver lining during their recent fall from grace.
Well, the offense is still missing — at least when the game was still on the line. And their pitching took a beating in a 13-6 loss to the surging Houston Astros at Coors Field.
The Astros — who’ve whipped Colorado in seven consecutive games dating back to Aug. 15, 2018 — are on a seven-game winning streak. They tore into Colorado pitching for 20 hits, including four home runs.
