Seasons

The Colorado Rockies' 2008 season was the team's 16th season overall. The Rockies attempted to repeat their previous season's success after making it to the World Series; however, they ended up finishing third place in the National League West with a record of 74-88. The Rockies drew 2,650,218 fans for the season, their highest total since 2002. The average home attendance was 33,127 fans.

Likely the most memorable game of the year was against the San Diego Padres on April 17, as it went 22 innings before Troy Tulowitzki drove in the winning run. It is the longest Rockies game in franchise history and (as of 2023) the longest game of the 21st century.[1]

  • December 7, 2007: Jamey Carroll was traded by the Colorado Rockies to the Cleveland Indians for a player to be named later. The Cleveland Indians sent Sean Smith (minors) (April 24, 2008) to the Colorado Rockies to complete the trade.[2]
  • December 13, 2007: Kip Wells and Luis Vizcaíno were signed as free agents by the Colorado Rockies.[3][4]
  • February 17, 2008: Scott Podsednik was signed as a free agent by the Colorado Rockies.[5]
  • March 26, 2008: Ramón Ramírez was traded by the Colorado Rockies to the Kansas City Royals for a player to be named later. The Kansas City Royals sent Jorge de la Rosa (April 30, 2008) to the Colorado Rockies to complete the trade.[6]

Notes

  • On April 17, 2008, Colorado beat the San Diego Padres, 2-1, in a 22-inning road game that spanned 6 hours and 16 minutes.[11][12] It was the longest game in Rockies history, in terms of both total innings and total length of time.[11] 659 total pitches were thrown in the game by 15 different pitchers (eight Rockies pitchers and seven Padres pitchers).[12] The 22-inning affair was the longest since August 31, 1993, when the Minnesota Twins, at home, defeated the Cleveland Indians, 5-4, in 22 innings.[11][13]
  • On July 1, 2008, the Rockies defeated the San Diego Padres, 4-0, in the shortest nine-inning game in Coors Field history – one hour and 58 minutes.[14]
  • On July 4, 2008, Colorado defeated the Florida Marlins, 18-17, after at one point being down, 13-4. The nine-run deficit that the Rockies overcame made it the largest comeback win in team history.[15]
  • On September 14, 2008, the Rockies and Los Angeles Dodgers played a game that went scoreless into the bottom of the 10th inning at Coors Field. It was the longest scoreless stretch in Coors Field history.[16] The Rockies eventually won the game, 1-0, as they scored the winning run in the bottom of the 10th inning.
