Overview
- The Colorado Rockies improved to 9-42 after defeating the New York Yankees 3-2 at Coors Field, ending a five-game losing streak.
- This win follows the Rockies' record-breaking 8-42 start, the worst 50-game opening in modern MLB history, and a four-game sweep by the Phillies earlier in the week.
- Interim manager Warren Schaeffer, now 2-9 since replacing Bud Black, credited the team’s resilience despite ongoing struggles on offense and defense.
- The Rockies’ pitching staff, with an MLB-worst 5.82 ERA, held the Yankees scoreless after Aaron Judge’s fifth-inning home run, a rare bright spot for Colorado’s rotation.
- Despite the victory, the Rockies remain on pace to surpass the all-time MLB loss record of 134 games set by the 1899 Cleveland Spiders.
