The Rockies lose another one to the Dodgers, a tough one, 3-2, in a game where Jorge De La Rosa was good, just not good enough, especially against a strong team, division leading LA.

Losing the series is difficult emotionally as well as in the standings but baseball is a long season and the Rockies just have to make up the ground down the road. This team still is lacking enough punch in the lineup against better teams. There are simply too many players who can't make adequate contact, can't get on base enough, can't get their batting averages above .230, .240 or .250.

Who would have thought a Rockies team would ever struggle offensively.

Who would have thought a Rockies team would actually have above-average to good pitching, which they do.

The times they are a changing.
