Rockies snap historic streak of 22 straight series losses against Marlins
The Colorado Rockies ended their MLB record-setting streak of 22 straight series losses Tuesday night, a bright spot in what has been a miserable and mortifying 2025 campaign. The streak, which dates back to last season, concluded with a narrow 3-2 win over the Miami Marlins thanks to Hunter Goodman's eighth-inning go-ahead solo home run — his 10th of the season and third in the last two contests. The win came in front of an announced crowd of 7,583 at loanDepot Park in Miami. Tyler Freeman had three hits and Jordan Beck two as the Rockies tied the game in the fifth inning on Beck's RBI single and Thairo Estrada's sacrifice fly. Advertisement The win Tuesday marked only the second time the Rockies have won consecutive games in 2025; they defeated Atlanta April 30 and San Francisco the following day. It's also the Rockies' first series victory since defeating Arizona in two of three games last September. The Rockies will go for a sweep on Wednesday afternoon. Not much has gone right this season for the 11-50 Rockies. They have been swept in 10 of 20 series so far — most recently against the New York Mets. The mark ties them with the 1962 Mets, 1970 Brewers and 1994 Athletics for the most sweeps through their first 20 series. Colorado is averaging 3.16 runs per game this season, which is last in the league, trailing the Pittsburgh Pirates (3.18). That number has dropped slightly since the last week of May, when Colorado averaged 3.2 runs. The Rockies are second in runs allowed this season with 6.14 per game, per Stat Muse, which only slightly trails the Athletics' 6.17 runs per contest. Victor Vodnik, who came off IL in mid-May, worked 1 1/3 innings of relief for the win Tuesday night, retiring three pinch hitters to earn the win. The Rockies rank 19th in bullpen ERA (4.05), which isn't the greatest but isn't the worst, either. The Rockies are the fourth team since MLB expansion in 1961 to go 18 series before recording their first series win in a season. With the two wins in Miami, the Rockies are now 5-28 on the road. After the series finale in Miami Wednesday, Colorado will start a six-game homestand with three games against the NL East-leading Mets before a series with the San Francisco Giants.

Rockies activate SS Ezequiel Tovar in flurry of moves
May 17 - The Colorado Rockies activated Gold Glove shortstop Ezequiel Tovar from the 10-day injured list prior to Friday night's road game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Tovar, 23, has been sidelined with a left hip contusion and last played for Colorado on April 15. In 16 games this season, Tovar is batting .212 with four doubles, a triple and four RBIs. In four seasons with Colorado, he is a career .258 hitter with 42 home runs and 157 RBIs in 335 games, and was named the National League's Gold Glove Award winner at shortstop last season. The Rockies also activated second baseman Tyler Freeman (oblique) and shortstop Aaron Schunk (groin) from the IL. Freeman is 1-for-11 (.091) in seven games this season while Schunk is 5-for-20 (.250) in seven games. Colorado also promoted left-hander Carson Palmquist from Triple-A Albuquerque to start Friday's game. Palmquist, 24, will be making his major league debut after going 2-2 with a 3.82 ERA in seven Triple-A starts this season. The Rockies also optioned outfielder Sean Bouchard (.169) and right-hander Anthony Molina (one scoreless appearance) to Albuquerque and designated shortstop Alan Trejo (.175) and second baseman Owen Miller (.143) for assignment. --Field Level Media
