The Rockies answered with four straight singles to start the bottom of the fourth as they pulled without 4-3.

Colorado rallied in the sixth. Elehuris tied it with a sacrifice fly off of Scott McGough (0-3), and a walk by Blackmon loaded the bases. Joe Mantiply came on and gave up an infield RBI single to McMahon and walked Elias Diaz to make it 6-4.
