Rockie Mountain Low
2005-07-09 22:20
by Mike Carminati

Tonight the Rockies won the first 1-0 game in Coors Field history behind seven innings of seven-hit ball by Jason Jennings.

The last home Rockies game that was as low-scoring was a six-inning 1-0 win over the Braves on August 10, 1994 on what turned out to be the second to last game of a strike-shortened season. Of course, that game predates Coors: the team played in the substantially lower scoring Mile High Stadium in those days.

The previous Coors low was two runs done three times: a 2-0 win over the Cubs on August 9, 2002, a 2-0 loss to the Braves on June 16, 1995, and a 2-0 win over Detroit June 10 of this year.

The Rockies have been involved in a few 1-0 road games, the last coming in 2003. Here is their record in 1-0 games, home and road:

1993 0-1
1994 2-0
1998 2-0
1999 1-0
2001 0-1
2002 2-1
2003 0-2
2005 1-0
Overall 8-5

They haven't fared as well in 2-0 games:

1995 0-5
1996 1-1
1997 0-1
1998 0-2
1999 0-2
2000 0-3
2002 1-1
2004 1-0
2005 1-1
Overall 4-16
