The Rockies played in front of the smallest Coors Field crowd in 10 years

The Colorado Rockies are only 13 games into a 162 game season, and the city has already pretty much given up on them…

The Rockies fell to 3-10 on the season yesterday (Apr. 10) thanks to a 5-3 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks in front of the smallest crowd at Coors Field in a decade!

Just 18,311 people were announced as the attendance for the game, the smallest crowd for a non-pandemic-restricted ballgame at 20th and Blake in the last 10 years. That means, two of the three smallest crowds in the last 10 years of Rockies baseball have come in the past three days, as they drew just 18,870 for Monday night’s game.

My question is, what are the crowds going to look like when this team has already lost 100 games in July? However, this may be just what the doctor ordered to kick ownership in the backside and show them we won’t stand for terrible baseball in Denver anymore!
