The Colorado Rockies were shut out 4-0 by the Tampa Bay Rays, completing a series sweep for the visiting team. The result ended Colorado’s home stand on a difficult note after the Rockies opened it by sweeping the Kansas City Royals.
Colorado’s pitching kept the game competitive, but the offense could not generate enough sustained traffic or string together the hits needed to score. The lack of production left the Rockies unable to answer the Rays’ lead.
The sweep marked a sharp contrast with Colorado’s strong start to the home stand. After taking care of Kansas City, the Rockies were overmatched by one of baseball’s strongest teams and finished the series without a win.
