Penalties, Turnovers, and Mistakes, Oh My! Gamecocks Defeat Huskers 30-13
You had to have a sneaking suspicion that this was not going to be Nebraska's day when South Carolina blocked the extra point after Nebraska's first touchdown and returned it for a two-point conversion. But even with that miscue, the Huskers seemed to controlling much of the game the rest of the...
Esmil Rogers Eviscerated by Mighty Giants Lineup, Rockies Lose 12-5
Looks like I made a good decision in going to the Broncos game instead of watching this train wreck. The Giants hit six homers in the game and had nine extra base hits -- all in the first six innings -- to complete the four game sweep over the hapless Rockies. Four of those homers and eight runs...
Rockies Fall Short Against San Diego, Lose 7-2
Down by one in the bottom of the 8th, two outs, a runner on third, and Andy Parrino at the plate. Who? Exactly, but Jim Tracy had him walked intentionally. Then Matt Lindstrom walked another, then Mark Ellis made an error, then Will Venable hit a bases-clearing triple and what was once a winnable...
Primetime Baseball Does Little to Change Colorado's Sunday Luck, 6-2 Loss Ensues
119 days. That's how long it's been since Colorado won on Sunday -- 17 weeks all told. The last time that I was able to affix the "winning" tag to the game wrap, as I am wont to do when the Rockies emerge victorious. 17 weeks since I was a Homer, chronicling the glorious tales of Hellenistic...
Rockies Lose 15th Straight Sunday Game, 8-3 to Padres
Fifteen Sundays, fifteen losses. They've been close, blowouts, pitchers duels, and slugfests...but the end result has been the same -- a loss for the Colorado Rockies. This time it was a bullpen meltdown that spoiled a fine pitching performance by Juan Nicasio. Nicasio went seven innings, allowing...
Rockies Crushed by Diamondbacks 7-0, Extend Sunday Losing Streak to 14
Today was just one of those days in which nothing went right for the Colorado Rockies, resulting in a loss. In other words, it was pretty much a normal Sunday afternoon in 2011. Colorado extended its Sunday losing streak to 14 with a meager 5 hit effort off the pitching juggernaut duo Micah Owings...
Rockies Extend Sunday Losing Streak to 13 with 4-3 Loss
The set-up was there for a loss. The weak link in Colorado's rotation against the best guy in Milwaukee's, a lineup with a few backups, it was Sunday, etc. To be honest, the Rockies made much more of a game of it than I expected they would as they lost their 50th game of the season this...
Punchless Rockies Run Sunday Losing Streak to 12 with 2-0 Loss to Nationals
This is getting a little ridiculous, don't you think? Twelve Sundays in a row, the Rockies have lost. I can't help but feel somewhat responsible for this. I'll tell you what, I'll do my best to attend the next Sunday game, because they haven't lost when I've been at Coors Field. The Rockies...
Royals Double Up Rockies 16-8, Carlos Gonzalez Suffers Wrist Contusion
It was a Sunday like the last 10 Sundays for the Rockies, which is to say it was a losing Sunday. This particular Sunday might have been more damaging than the ones preceding it however, as Colorado CF Carlos Gonzalez left the game with a right wrist injury after making a nice running catch against...
Rockies Waste Wigginton's Two Homers in 6-4 Loss
Everything was right with the world if you were a Rockies fan heading into the bottom of the fifth inning. The Rockies had pushed across three runs on Ivan Nova and the Yankees, two on solo HRs by Ty Wigginton (11) and Chris Iannetta (10). Juan Nicasio was pitching out of his mind, retiring...
