The Colorado Rockies had a pretty solid chance to pick up a home win on Tuesday with the Washington Nationals in town.
Despite facing a lineup led by Juan Soto, the Rockies were coming off a sweep of Cincinnati and facing Washington starter Erick Fedde and his 4.68 ERA. Yet even with Colorado a home favorite at Tipico (-145), some around Coors Field seemed to know an eventual 10-2 loss was on the horizon.
Specifically, the Rockies’ scoreboard operator, who served up a very prescient message shortly before first pitch that tried to provide some perspective on life, love and, well, baseball, too.

Ooof.
I mean, as far as life lessons go, this is certainly a worthy one to keep in mind. As far as baseball goes, it’s probably a sign to just enjoy being at Coors Field on a weeknight. Which was definitely the way to go since the Nats scored three runs in the third inning, another in the fourth and three more in the fifth. Also, Juan Soto did this:
Did Juan Soto homer?
