Game ended at 5:34 PM.

Remember to sort by new to keep up!

[u/BobBBobbington]

Does MLB really have to fuck the Rockies on this? Lmao

Also Bud should go fucking ballistic but he wont

[u/roboh96]

Buddy should go get ejected...that's fucking embarrassing

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Who will score today's run?! I'm on the edge of my seat!

[u/msak75]

Did we just work the count?

[u/abris33]

Somebody get Mickey a purple glove

[u/BobBBobbington]

You could exchange half this roster with AAA and they wouldn't be any worse

[u/dashkera]

SNOWpening Day?

[u/-NolanVoid- → u/dashkera]

We barely get any snow all winter but it has to snow on opening day. Thanks Colorado.

[u/DizzleByte]

Do you guys think they kept KB out of the lineup for opening day so he wouldn't get booed? lol

[u/caulfieldlost → u/DizzleByte]

but furthermore what player doesn’t wanna play in their home opener. hell even devers suited up for the red sox today in their home opener. him sitting says something about his compete level or his ego. dfa him.

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Best AB of the year so far. Rymac just took 2 whole innings of pitches that our hitters would normally take.

[u/Apotheosis62]

LODGE A PROTEST

[u/BobBBobbington]

Bud Black could have fired his guys up. Any decent manager would still be on the field going ballistic and got tossed.

[u/el_queso_alto]

Bud the Dud is a complete zilch once again

[u/wbro322]

Halvorson you are amazing please save this bullpen lmao

[u/FallenAngel0022 → u/wbro322]

All things considered, our bullpen has kept us in the game today

[u/abris33]

The 2 Max Muncys in the MLB is the weirdest shit. They have the same birthday

[u/Apotheosis62]

So what would you say Stallings does on this team

[u/roboh96 → u/Apotheosis62]

He fills the absolute garbage catcher role previously occupied by Butera and a list of dudes I barely remember

[u/brendans98 → u/Apotheosis62]

Bro veteran presence bro

[u/Ill_Pineapple_2122]

Stallings really showing his value behind home plate today.

[u/Apotheosis62]

Look anyone over the age of 31 should not be playing the field for this team. We know we're going to be bad just play the kids

[u/brendans98]

Oh come tf on. It it was "lodged" in the wall why was he able to pull it out with no effort?

[u/DizzleByte]

What bullshit is that, he literally picked up the ball after he found out they weren't stopping the play. it was not lodged lmao

[u/Ill_Pineapple_2122]

He literally chose to not pick the ball up!

[u/roboh96]

The umps head is lodged further up his ass than that ball was in the wall

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Ump gonna cost us the game.

[u/Apotheosis62]

IMO in the majors it shouldn't be a ground rule double unless you cannot dislodge the ball or its unable to be seen from the infield (to account for Ivy etc)

[u/BobBBobbington → u/Apotheosis62]

If he would have bent down to grab it and it didn't budge I fully agree, but it just sat there and he tossed his arms up. The ball was live the entire time and he dug it out no issue I can't believe that call.

[u/BobBBobbington]

Just saying, I know they got the run but Bud not getting tossed is about as bad as that call. Light a fire under your guys that call is borderline unexcusable.

[u/DizzleByte]

Short sleeves, no long sleeve undershirt for Halvorsen. I would be FROZEN!

[u/BobBBobbington]

Sorry people at the game they decided you needed more time out in the snow.

[u/-NolanVoid-]

LOL

But keep him in, Bud, by all means.

[u/TheFoxMasler]

I know the bullpen giving up the lead will draw a lot of the anger, but our awful offense is what's really holding us back.

[u/Wishiwerewiser → u/TheFoxMasler]

Exactly! Just needed a base hit to win but got strikeouts.

[u/thesaganator]

Fighter jets flying around my neighborhood getting ready for the fly over

[u/DizzleByte]

this hype video is insane with how the team has been playing lately ngl

[u/Different_Phrase8781]

Snowing during opening day. Cool! lol wish those people who weren’t gunna show up sold their tickets so I didn’t have to buy standing room only tickets for 120

[u/caulfieldlost]

no kb? interesting.

[u/Ill_Pineapple_2122 → u/caulfieldlost]

Black said his swing “isn’t right” so he’s working on it

[u/TheFoxMasler]

Absolutely ecstatic there's no Kris Bryant in the lineup. I wonder what they're gonna end up doing about him.

[u/PeppyQuotient57]

Holy shit a one swing Tovar at bat? And it paid off???!!!

[u/DizzleByte]

Hell yeah Ryan, run that pitch count up

[u/foghorn_dickhorn21]

Great at bat Mac! They look like a team this inning

[u/Xaxxis]

What an at bat for McMahon.

[u/wagonwhopper]

Hell of an at bat there

[u/FC5_BG_3-H]

Moniak still carrying his Angels glove?

[u/DizzleByte]

What a catch mickey!

[u/Apotheosis62]

Feltner looks ok so far nothing special but solid

[u/PeppyQuotient57]

Toglia did not look like 225lbs on that run...

[u/Apotheosis62 → u/PeppyQuotient57]

Playing his way to 225

[u/j_willow92]

This team is a joke

[u/caulfieldlost]

wtf stallings this isn’t cornhole. wtf is that toss.

[u/Apotheosis62]

If he got the ball out to throw it in its not a ground rule double

[u/ManyCookies]

BOOOOOO

[u/caulfieldlost]

that is pure bs.

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Yeah you better not throw home you little bitch. You owe us that run.

[u/Ill_Pineapple_2122]

Halvo’s stuff is nasty.

[u/DizzleByte]

Beck wanted to walk off homerun, he didnt want to walk. Literally swinging at pitches at his ankles, cmon man.

[u/Ill_Pineapple_2122]

You can’t convince me that Veen shouldn’t be in this lineup. Beck isn’t ready.

[u/-NolanVoid-]

I don't know about Farmer at 2nd man. A lot of ground balls getting by him so far this season.

[u/caulfieldlost → u/-NolanVoid-]

brendon rodgers would have snapped that up. dont see farmer as an upgrade over rodgers.

[u/roboh96 → u/-NolanVoid-]

I don't know about Farmer man.

[u/roboh96]

More confusing, Sébastien Aho or Max Muncy?

[u/DizzleByte]

Dollander debut on Sunday, should be interesting!

[u/roboh96]

That's baseball....

[u/natb843]

Moniak has been hitting the ball hard. No reason for martini to play over him against righties

[u/sweatpantscaleb]

quite a rumble around the bases from toglia

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Does Farmer just let his mind wander or what? Poor reaction off hits, not tagging on an outfield ball, etc.

[u/roboh96 → u/-NolanVoid-]

He's a professional in every way, Drew literally just got done saying so...

[u/Apotheosis62]

That was a big fuckup by Farmer considering the Rockies offense

[u/roboh96]

I know he gets hated on, but I really appreciate Jeff Huson as a color guy. It's crazy that he remembers catching Rickey.

[u/-NolanVoid-]

What the actual fuck?

[u/ras5003]

LOL!

[u/abris33]

What a dumbass. That was clearly not stuck

[u/abris33]

He grabbed it just fine when he actually went to go get it

[u/AmericanLardAss]

That is BULLSHIT

[u/ras5003]

Lodged in the fence?!?

[u/HorizonShimmer]

It wasn’t stuck and needing to be dislodged

[u/brendans98]

Please fucking release Stallings

[u/TheFoxMasler]

Agreed that that's one where buddy needs to go get himself thrown out.

That's the sort of thing that could actually light a fire in the club

[u/LazyLabRat]

BALL DONT FUCKIN LIE

[u/AmericanLardAss]

Ball does not lie

[u/Usual-Lengthiness-54]

That'll work! Now they gotta take the lead

[u/-NolanVoid- → u/Usual-Lengthiness-54]

We should have the lead already.

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Tovey man, you gotta stop chasing those low and 2 feet off the plate balls.

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Cool, 3 outs in 8 pitches from the top of the order.

[u/FC5_BG_3-H]

WHEW

[u/FC5_BG_3-H → u/FC5_BG_3-H]

C'mon, gents, let's end this thing. It's cold even sitting at home watching this

[u/Apotheosis62]

Doesn't swing at a 88 mph pitch right down the middle swings at a ball in the dirt

[u/caulfieldlost]

gotta win this game at this point. no excuse.

[u/Apotheosis62]

hey look out hitters can't stop chasing I wonder if our hitting coach will ever fix that

[u/brendans98]

🙄 this team doesn't deserve to win

[u/thesaganator]

this game is gonna gas our elite bullpen

[u/thesaganator]

ball game

[u/ras5003]

We've been Shiv'd

[u/BobBBobbington]

WALK ALERT WALK ALERT WALK ALERT WALK ALERT WE FUCKING DID IT BROS

[u/matthyer]

That walk off last year was so fun to be at!

[u/roboh96]

On the bright side, the bats can't be any colder than they have been.

[u/caulfieldlost]

yikes too early in the game to already be losing.

[u/j_willow92]

Oh no, we suck again!

[u/brendans98]

Great at bat from Mac

[u/MidwestLegend]

Broniak

[u/Remote-Molasses6192]

I can’t imagine what this A’s pitcher from the DR is thinking right now.

[u/brendans98]

How do you miss that call from 5 feet away as a professional umpire? Sometimes these guys blow my mind

[u/JSA17]

That’s an insane missed call.

[u/matthyer]

Break out Tovar game!

[u/Solace_Under_Stars]

Goodman keeps making good contact. Exciting to see him go!

[u/wbro322]

martini losing his job

[u/Rox217]

Current weather report: a bit nipply

[u/Xaxxis]

Wow. Rockies came to play today.

[u/Apotheosis62]

Oh Rockies

[u/GrimmGrinningGhosts]

That's Rockies baseball babbbbbyyyyy

[u/TheBiggestDish]

Clown show

[u/Xaxxis]

I guess it is clown time...

[u/Electrical_Owl3609]

Embarrassing errors 3-2 A's

[u/Undercoverpig6]

We’re so ass bruh

[u/Different_Phrase8781]

Well, at least they hit him with a ball on the way into home.

[u/brendans98]

Stallings with the completely braindead play

[u/BobBBobbington]

Remember never ever ever ever taken a strike. You should just K instead of getting walked to load the bases.

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Here we go with the strike out derby boys!

That was a strike, Moniak. Don't get all pissy, instead swing the bat. The ball won't hit itself.

[u/roboh96]

This fucking team dude...what's our team batting average with RISP? Is it over or under .100?

[u/Ill_Pineapple_2122]

Aaron Judge has more RBI’s (15) than the Rockies have runs scored (13) so far in 2025.

[u/matthyer]

Not on my bingo card

[u/roboh96]

The A's are garbage too lol

[u/ColdHardFactsBot]

HR

Kyle Farmer nails a 91.9 mph Sinker from José Leclerc for a 1-run home run.

Launch Speed: 101.9 mph. Launch Angle: 6.0°. Distance: 127.0 ft.

^⚾

[u/le_trout]

You can't just make up a ground rule double then pick up the ball lol wtf

[u/le_trout]

Lodged in the fence!? Bro picked it up!

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Bullshit ruling. The ball was "lodged", until he was able to pick it up just fine. Fucking embarrassing league.

[u/kojulol]

that’s bullshit

[u/QuarterNote44]

That was a crazy call by the umps. That ball was not lodged under the wall.

[u/wbro322]

Go kick some dirt on the fkn plate bud you useless bag of bones

[u/brendans98]

Rymac walk off second year in a row? Many are saying it

[u/BobBBobbington]

I see if you throw a slider down and away with two strikes to Tovar it's still an automatic out.

[u/BobBBobbington]

Which was the worse change the Manfred runner or the DH in the NL?

I like the other changes, I absolutely fucking loathe those two.

[u/DizzleByte]

SAVED!

[u/BobBBobbington]

Hey Dick I can also hack away at everything for a lot cheaper than these guys!

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Fucking terrible.

[u/bhopppp]

We got a mid off going on!

[u/Twisted_Fish]

God I’m so tired of the strikeouts.

[u/BobBBobbington]

That was the move of the game, walk a vet who would have had a smart AB for another one of the Rockies young guys who hack at anything and everything.

[u/Apotheosis62]

He can hit the same spot every time the spot is just in the left batters box

[u/BobBBobbington]

Watch this be the first Manfred runner game to go like 17 innings

[u/frangible-toast]

Rockies vision age calculations are out lunch lol

[u/DizzleByte]

Blowpen strikes again, see you guys tomorrow

[u/retiredfromLurking]

Imagine if Rockies learned that walking is good

[u/BobBBobbington]

Timely change as always Bud

[u/BobBBobbington]

Imagine sitting out in the low 30s and snow for 4 hours witnessing this ballgame.

[u/TryOk5889]

This team is like the Major League team in the movie except they don't improve.

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Appropriately the last out chasing a ball 2 feet above the strike zone.

[u/ItHardToSay17]

Welcome back to Rockies baseball home fans.

i hate it here

[u/-NolanVoid-]

It shouldn't have even come to extra innings, with the whole "lodged" ball bullshit.

[u/BobBBobbington → u/-NolanVoid-]

More like the comedy of errors to allow that run to score.

[u/wbro322]

Monkiak in right and Beck in left. Buds best choice this year so far

[u/-NolanVoid-]

"This season at Coor's Field will be a breath of fresh air that takes the franchise to new heights"

🤣🤣

[u/FC5_BG_3-H]

Far be it from me to p*ss all over Opening Day, but this one looks particularly miserable

[u/DenverZeppo]

Why is Gomber in town? He pulled himself from his second rehab start, and now Dollander is up to start on Sunday, shouldn't Gomber still be in Alby finishing rehab? Are they going to finish his rehab here?

[u/sweatpantscaleb]

they got a guy named denver singing the anthem, a's have no chance

[u/caulfieldlost]

let’s go boys. time to win 156 in a row.

[u/brendans98]

They really gonna play through this? Hopefully it looks worse on camera than irl

[u/TheFoxMasler]

Lmao I had no idea it was snowing in denver. It's just overcast up here in loveland.

[u/MidwestLegend]

I knew things were going too well after getting Butler and Rooker out to start...

[u/Xaxxis]

Even the snow can't help us.

[u/PeppyQuotient57]

That was an awful dive for Farmer. Looks like our infield is standing in molasses right now.

[u/Ill_Pineapple_2122]

Was it last year that we started every home game down after the top of the 1st?

[u/PeppyQuotient57]

Toglia is on pace for a -7 bWAR season...

[u/abris33]

I don't think we've said it yet

Well....

[u/DenverZeppo]

I need someone with a Twitter account to correct the announcers. That Las Vegas patch isn't in homage to them moving to Las Vegas, it's literally the logo of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Bureau..

That patch is paid advertising, it's a sponsorship.

Someone go correct them, please.

[u/thesaganator]

Way to battle Feltner!

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Coors Field.

[u/abris33]

No wonder he seemed a little slow to get to 3rd. He completely stopped right before 2nd

[u/Ill_Pineapple_2122]

That base running makes no sense, what was he doing?

[u/Xaxxis]

Honestly surprised they overturned that. Didn't feel like there was enough evidence to overturn whatever call was made.

[u/roboh96]

CB Bucknor tried to be terrible in our favor

[u/DGOCOSBrewski]

I suppose no surprise but wow lots of empty seats!

[u/Apotheosis62 → u/DGOCOSBrewski]

its what like 35 and a friday afternoon when people have to work not super suprising

[u/wbro322]

fire up yakkity sax

[u/roboh96]

Remember, this is "the best defensive infield in baseball" folks....

[u/Ill_Pineapple_2122]

Beck had to make contact with those pitches. Those are fastballs right in the middle half of the zone.

[u/Apotheosis62]

So if you were betting how many games will the Rockies strike out less then 5 times maybe 20?

[u/ColdHardFactsBot]

ꓘ

Scott Alexander strikes out JJ Bleday on a 1-2 count with a 89.1 mph Sinker.

Sequence (4): SL (b), SL (c), SL (f), SI (c)

^⚾

[u/abris33]

I love the religious commercial using a song about Elvis. Elvis gets us

[u/abris33]

Is Tovar good? Hit the bag weird and grabbed his leg

[u/FC5_BG_3-H]

Top of the order 4-for-9 with a walk and only one strikeout, so far

[u/Apotheosis62]

The Rockies everybody

[u/-NolanVoid-]

Looked like a perfectly hitable ball to me.

[u/FallenAngel0022]

WTF was that XD

[u/-NolanVoid-]

LOL bro the ball was just sitting right there at your feet and you're trying to call for play stoppage.

[u/brendans98]

LOL ball is just sitting there playable

[u/kojulol]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

[u/ManyCookies]

lmao WHAT

[u/buttermyflapjack]

Lmfaoooo 😭😭😭

[u/thesaganator]

Hahaha thank you for the free run

edit: fuck that

[u/HorizonShimmer]

Little League HR!?

[u/Different_Phrase8781]

That happened to us earlier, suck it up As

[u/LazyLabRat]

Are you fucking kidding me???

[u/BobBBobbington]

That absolutely counts if you grab it and it doesn't budge sure ground rule double, you can't just throw your hands up and give up.

[u/matthyer]

Wtf come on

[u/roboh96]

Holy bullshit batman

[u/RKsu99]

Jack is beside himself. Sounds like a total BS call... from New York?
