Colorado Rockies history
Denver's team joined the National League as an expansion club for the 1993 season. Its first two years were played at Mile High Stadium. In 1995 the Rockies opened Coors Field in Lower Downtown, a park that quickly earned a reputation for being friendly to hitters. That same year, four players each hit 30 home runs, and the group got the nickname Blake Street Bombers.
Colorado has made the postseason five times, every time as a wild card. The 2007 run stands out: the team won 14 of its last 15 regular season games, then beat San Diego 9-8 in 13 innings in a tiebreaker fans call Game 163. Sweeps of the Phillies and Diamondbacks followed, but Boston swept the Rockies in the World Series.
