The Diamondbacks made dubious history, setting a modern-era (since 1900) major league record with their 23rd straight road loss, getting trounced by the San Francisco Giants 10-3 on Thursday.

The dejected D-backs trudged off the field and quietly made their way back to the visiting clubhouse following the final out, breaking a tie with the 1963 Mets and 1943 Philadelphia Athletics for road futility.

The Diamondbacks' 10-3 loss to the Giants in San Francisco on Thursday set the modern-era record (since 1900) for consecutive road losses.

The MLB mark felt almost inevitable after Tuesday's collapse, which saw Arizona blow a 7-0 lead in an anguishing 9-8 loss to the Giants.

The Diamondbacks' only consolation coming off this four-game sweep: They don't play again on the road until June 25 at San Diego, exactly two months to the day since their last road victory.

Baltimore lost its 19th straight road game Thursday, also falling by the same 10-3 score at Cleveland.

Since then, the Diamondbacks have been swept on the road by the Marlins, Mets, Dodgers, Rockies, Brewers, Athletics and Giants.
