The Colorado Rockies became the first team to play a regular-season game in three different countries within the same month. They're also the first team to lose games in three countries. Colorado dropped the first game of the Mexico City Series to the Houston Astros, 12-4, on Saturday to continue its rough start to the season. The Rockies will try to earn a split of the international series when Austin Gomber (0-1, 4.32 ERA) faces Houston's Framber Valdez (0-0, 2.19) on Sunday. Colorado has...
After yesterday’s 12-4 drubbing at the hands of the Houston Astros, the Colorado Rockies will look to avoid the sweep in Mexico. Two of the runs the Rockies scored came via a Ryan McMahon two-run homer in the first inning, making McMahon just the second Rockie to hit a home run in an international game. Dante Bichette did it on Opening Day 1999 in Monterrey against the San Diego Padres. Austin Gomber (0-1, 4.32 ERA) will take the mound for the Rockies this afternoon. He did not factor into the...
MEXICO CITY -- The biggest reason the Astros have struggled in April is the health of their pitching staff. Six starters have already spent time on the injured list this season, including five at the same time. That forced Houston to call up some young arms who weren’t quite ready,

Here is the boxscore from the last game these two teams played in Wrigley Field before today. Just four men who played in that game nearly 11 years ago are still active: Jose Altuve, J.D. Martinez, Jordan Lyles and Anthony Rizzo. One is deceased (Luis Valbuena, who died in a car accident in 2018). The Cubs won that game 14-6. Rizzo homered for the Cubs. So did Ryan Sweeney, who is now doing studio work for Marquee Sports Network. That series was the first time the Cubs faced the Astros after...
After taking the first two games of the series, the Atlanta Braves look to sweep the Houston Astros as Max Fried takes the mound. Fried looked sharp in his last start against the Marlins and the Astros’ starter J.P. France gave up eight earned runs against the Rangers in his last start.

First pitch is scheduled for 2:10 p.m. ET and can be seen on Bally...
