Manager Bud Black was ejected right before the Hernandez home run after thinking that a checked swing should have resulted in a game-ending strikeout, but it was ruled no swing and Hernandez hit the home run. The Rockies are now 25-48 and own a better record than the Chicago White Sox and Miami Marlins. Miami is 24-49 to own the worst record in the National League. The Rockies will however have a chance at the top pick in the 2026 draft if they keep losing like this.BRADY FARKAS
