 Colorado Rockies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Colorado Rockies joined the National League as an expansion franchise in 1993, along with the Florida Marlins.
The 1993 Rockies still have the largest ever season attendance, with 4,483,350, and the team led the National League in attendance every year from 1993 to 1999.
Since their inception, the Rockies have always tended to have a strong hitting squad and home record, which are offset by a weak bullpen and road record.
