With the Rockies sporting a 37-59 record and sitting 18 1/2 games behind the first-place Dodgers in the NL West, there isn’t much to cheer for or pay much attention to when it comes to the home team in Colorado.
However, a game this week provided some confusion and excitement when a message displayed on the Coors Field scoreboard Wednesday went viral.
“Whoever runs the scoreboard at Coors Field is NOT OKAY,” DNVR writer Suzie Hunter tweeted during the Rockies’ 4-1 loss to the Astros.
Under the game notes heading read a message saying: “Using a stethoscope to listen to the heart, cardiologists can detect narrow valves, valve leakage, and/or abnormal rhythm. Don’t bother asking him to check YOUR heart though, Becky. That crushed Titanic sub has more life inside of it than that collapsed troll cave you call a chest cavity.”
It seems this was not an accident as fans attending hme games are used to seeing messages like this.

The Rockies would go on to lose Wednesday’s game 4-1 and split the two-game series against the Houston Astros.
With an 18-game deficit in the NL West, the only thing the Rockies are playing for is draft picks and developing young talent that can stop the team from going through this in the future.
The Colorado Rockies last made the playoffs in 2018, when they lost the NL Divisional Series. They’ve been in the playoffs a total of 5 times in their 31 seasons. The team has appeared in the World Series once, in 2007.
