Colorado blanked the Cardinals, 6-0, on Wednesday afternoon at Coors Field in the team’s first shutout since May 15, 2024, when the Rockies beat the Padres, 8-0, in San Diego. The 220-game drought was the longest of baseball’s modern era, supplanting a 199-game run without a shutout by the St. Louis Browns in 1939.
