The Rockies lost the second game in a row to the Houston Astros 6-2 in 10 innings. The Rockies scored first in both the games the lost but the bullpen faltered down the stretch culminating in Carlos Lee’s grand slam off Matt Belisle in the 10th inning.
Aaron Cook had another solid performance limiting the Astros to two runs on five hits in seven innings. The story of the game was the Rockies offense, or lack there of. The Rockies sit in fourth place in the NL West and are one game above .500. There is still time to turn the ship around with 2/3 of the season left to play, but they better stat hitting or they will have no hope of a surge.According to Troy Renck’s twitter page who writes for the Denver Post the Rockies offense is dead last in terms of runs from the fifth inning on.
