2027 Playoffs:

Game 1 against Washington:

In the first game, Helcris Olivarez faced off against MacKenzie Gore. Olivarez, our best starter, had a really poor showing, allowing 4 runs in just over 3 innings, walking 6 batters and giving up a home run. He was relieved by Jaden Hill, who immediately walked three batters and allowed two more runs. Although Hollowell, Kostyshock and Gilbreath did their job for the rest of the game, we could never recover, and only managed to score one run in the 4th inning. A weak game by the Rockies, and a deserved loss.

Game 2 against Washington:

Levi Wells, set to make his first post-season appearance, would battle Ranger Suarez. We went back with the exact same lineup as in the first game, and it immediately paid off. Doyle and Veen got on base in the first inning, and Jordan Beck delivered a home run to send us to a 3-0 lead. Wells struggled with walks, and gave up 4 runs, but we lead 6-4 going into the bottom of the 6th inning. Stephen Jones and Reagan Todd threw the lead away with walks and wild pitches. The game then went on and on- Mejia pitched 3 great innings for us, Gilbreath then another, Kosyshock then another. But in the 12th inning, after striking out the first two batters, he allowed a walk, and then a home run. In disappointing fashion, we were swept out of the wild card round for the second year in a row.
