SAN DIEGO -- The Colorado Rockies roll into San Diego for a four-game series with the Padres starting Thursday, their second soft spot in a six-game trip.
The first turnout in Colorado's West Coast excursion was a disaster, though.
The last-place San Francisco Giants swept both games and Colorado's hold on the second National League wild-card spot grows more tenuous by the day. The Rockies, who have lost three straight, lead Milwaukee by one game.
The Padres saw their three-game winning streak snapped Wednesday by Arizona, but they already had clinched the series with the Diamondbacks.
