The Colorado Rockies experienced a historic defeat, suffering a 21-0 shutout loss to the San Diego Padres, marking the first occurrence since 1889 where a team scored over 20 runs while its starter, Stephen Kolek, threw a nine-inning shutout. This match ties for the largest win during a pitcher’s individual shutout since 1900 and ranks among the largest shutout victories in MLB history. Following the loss, the Rockies hold the worst record in the league at 6-33, despite general manager Bill Schmidt expressing hopes for a turnaround.
