Hapless Rockies shut out for fourth straight time by Padres at Petco Park

The Rockies are zero for San Diego.

The Padres shut them out again Thursday night at Petco Park, winning 2-0 and limiting the Rockies to four hits.

    On April 11-13, the Padres blanked Colorado three times at Petco, marking the first time in Rockies history that they were shut out in three consecutive games. Add in Thursday night’s game, and the Padres have outscored the Rockies 18-0 over four games at Petco in 2025.

    Compounding the Rockies’ offensive woes is the fact that they were shut out, 9-0, by the Dodgers in Los Angeles on Wednesday night, a game in which the Rockies struck out 17 times. What did the Rockies do for an encore? They whiffed 14 times Thursday night.

    The Rockies (40-107) have now lost 17 of their last 20 games, and all of that talk about progress and turning the corner during the second half of the worst season in franchise history rings hollow.

    Thursday night’s loss was, perhaps, more bitter than Wednesday’s because the Rockies received solid pitching from rookie starter McCade Brown and relievers Jaden Hill, Jimmy Herget, and Victor Vodnik.

    In his last start, Brown got the full Charlie Brown treatment. On Sept. 6 at Coors Field, the Padres knocked Brown’s socks off, scoring six runs on five hits in just 1 2/3 innings.

    But Thursday night, Brown was a much better pitcher. He gave up two runs on five hits, with four strikeouts and two walks over 4 1/3 innings. It was the best of his four big-league outings.

    San Diego scratched out a run in the third. Freddy Fermin hit a one-out single and took second on Brown’s wild pitch. Luis Arraez slapped a single to right field to give the Padres a 1-0 lead.

    Jackson Merrill’s two-out solo home run in the fourth made it 2-0. Merrill hit Brown’s 0-1 sinker into the left-field seats for his 11th homer.
