When the Colorado Rockies welcomed the Texas Rangers to Coors Field for Game 2, their hope was to pick up where they left off after getting a Monday night win. After all, it was “Bark in the Park,” so the vibes (and the dogs!) were good. However, by the time the game ended, there was […]
The Texas Rangers scored a girthy ten runs while the Colorado Rockies scored no runs at all. This one’ll do wonders for the ol’ Pythagorean W-L. Maybe last night’s loss was the kick in the butt moment the Rangers needed as they came out tonight and immediately scored a couple of runs before turning to […]
The Nuggets' title window looks even smaller after the first game of the Western Conference Finals.
Postgame update: After the game, Warren Schaeffer provided an update. “Left side contusion on that diving play out there,” Schaeffer said. “We’ll know more tomorrow, but that was painful.” Colorado Rockies center fielder Brenton Doyle left today’s game against the Texas Rangers after making a spectacular diving attempt on a ball in the first inning, […]

Nikola Jokic's name will go alongside legends, even though he finished second in the MVP voting again.
Texas Rangers lineup for May 19, 2026, against the Colorado Rockies: starting pitchers are Tyler Alexander for the Rangers and Sammy Peralta for the Rockies. The Rangers and the Rockies face off again, with each team using a lefthanded opener to start things off. Kumar Rocker is the scheduled starter for Texas, but given his […]
The Conference Finals are now set in the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
The Canadiens beat the Sabres in a thrilling Game 7 on Monday night in Buffalo to join the Carolina Hurricanes in the Eastern Conference Final, meanwhile, over in the Western Conference Final, it’ll be the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Colorado Avalanche facing off against the Vegas Golden Knights.
Every team takes a different path to contention and pivots at key points to remain there. The Philadelphia Flyers arrived i...
As poorly as the 2025-26 season has gone for Liverpool, it’s gone quite a bit worse for West Ham. London’s Hammers appear a near-lock for relegation, as they would both need to beat Leeds on the final day and for Spurs to earn no points from their final two matches against Chelsea and Everton. If, […]
Hartford Yard Goats outfielder Benny Montgomery may be just 23-years-old, but he’s already entering his sixth season in the Rockies system. Selected eighth overall in the 2021 draft out of Red Land High School in Pennsylvania, the 6’5” Montgomery hit the ground running. He made a strong first impression by hitting .340/.404/.383 in 14 games […]

We’ve looked at the forwards and the defense; now, we’ll examine the final and, as some may argue, the most critical position for both the Colorado Avalanche and Vegas Golden Knights: goaltending. The tandem effort of Mackenzie Blackwood and Scott Wedgewood powered the Avalanche to the top of the NHL for the near entirety of […]
Rockies 7, Rangers 6
Good morning. Shawn McFarland writes that poor defense was the main culprit for the Texas Rangers dropping the series opener against the Colorado Rockies. McFarland writes that Josh Jung in particular felt responsible for the defeat to Colorado after Jung’s error led to two runs scoring in a one-run loss. Kennedi Landry writes that the […]
Aaron Gordon is a beloved Nugget. Nuggets fans and the organization could have to grapple with a tough situation.
Back during spring training (which seems like a lifetime ago, frankly), Purple Row caught up with the Colorado Rockies new hitting coach Brett Pill. (Read that interview here.) In mid-February, Pill was focused on clear communication and individualized instruction for players. Consider where the Rockies are this year compared to 2025 with the (significant) caveats […]
It wasn’t a sure thing this game would be played to conclusion as the rain fell hard during Bark at the Park night. However, the Colorado Rockies and the Texas Rangers played a full nine innings of soggy baseball with plenty of slips, slides, and runs scored. “I love it,” said TJ Rumfield of the […]
The Texas Rangers scored six runs but the Colorado Rockies scored seven runs. Let’s see here… The Rangers fielded one of the least impressive lineups I’ve maybe ever seen. Their starting pitcher MacKenzie Gore left injured after only an inning of work in which he was lucky to have allowed just two runs. The defense […]
It’s a chilly and damp night in Denver, Colorado—which also happens to be the first Bark at the Park night—as the Texas Rangers arrive for a visit to kick off a three game series. The Rangers just lost two of their last three in Houston and just lost franchise star Corey Seager to the injured […]

The Nuggets are in tax-penalty territory and looking to save money. They have two easy decisions they might make.
Whenever we feel down, we will always have the Rockies to feel better again, right? Wesley: I’m writing this Sunday morning after tough luck loss to the Rockies on Saturday, so not always! The Angels have it much worse. Still, nice to see Merril Kelly and the D’Backs offense turning it around for a game […]
The Diamondbacks did what they were supposed to do in Colorado and took two out of three against the Rockies, though it was touch and go there for a while. They remain below .500, however, and they’ll be looking for another series against a struggling team to leapfrog up past that point again. The Giants […]
