Blank slate: Rockies get 1st shutout in 221 games
Briefly

The Colorado Rockies achieved their first shutout since May 2024, defeating the St. Louis Cardinals 6-0, ending a 220-game streak without keeping an opponent scoreless. Rookie Tanner Gordon pitched six scoreless innings, marking the first shutout victory for the team since an 8-0 win against the Padres. Historically, the Rockies are the only major league team to surpass 200 games without a shutout since 1901. They have recently won consecutive series for the first time this season, reflecting improvements in their performance.
That was good behind Gordon. Gordon did a fantastic job.
Gordon scattered four hits while striking out three and walking three to become the first Rockies rookie since Kyle Freeman in 2017 to pitch at least six scoreless innings in a game at Coors Field.
Extremely important. One game at a time. And I think that's the biggest thing, is sticking to the plan, being in the present.
Colorado is the only major league team since at least 1901 to go more than 200 games without a shutout victory.
