The Colorado Rockies lost 2-0 to the Philadelphia Phillies to cap off the worst start in league history. They are 8-42 this season which is the worst 50-game start in modern MLB history. Colorado is also on pace to lose a whopping 136 games this season. That would surpass the 1899 Cleveland Spiders (20-134) for the most losses by an MLB team ever. Last season, the Chicago White Sox set the record for most losses(121) in the modern era. Will the 2025 Colorado Rockies make history for all the wrong reasons?
Colorado Rockies Season Summary
Colorado has the league’s worst record by 7 games. The Rockies have been putrid on offense this year. They are 28th in batting average, 26th in home runs, and 29th in runs scored.
