Diamondbacks 11, Rockies 6
PHOENIX -- Paul Goldschmidt and Jean Segura tripled and homered and Goldschmidt finished a six-run seventh inning with a two-out, three-run triple in the Arizona Diamondbacks' 11-6 victory over the Colorado Rockies at Chase Field on Tuesday.
Goldschmidt had four RBIs and Segura had three as the D-backs (1-1) overcame a four-run deficit by scoring the final nine runs, with Segura's two-run triple capping a three-run sixth inning.
Yasmany Tomas had a sacrifice fly with one out in the seventh inning to tie the game at 6 and Nick Ahmed and Chris Owings added RBI singles before Goldschmidt's triple handed the loss Christian Bergman (0-1).
Colorado rookie shortstop Trevor Story hit his third homer in two games and Nick Hundley and DJ LeMahieu also homered for the Rockies (1-1), who scored all their runs in the fourth inning off right-hander Shelby Miller.
Story is the second player in major league history to hit three homers in his first two games, joining former St. Louis first baseman Joe Cunningham. Story had two homers Monday, the first player to do that in his major league debut on opening day.
He joined Todd Helton as the only Rockies to homer in their first two major league games.
Ahmed had two RBI singles and Tyler Clippard (1-0) pitched a 1-2-3 seventh in his first appearance with the D-backs.
Miller gave up six runs and eight hits in six innings. He struck out two and walked one.
Rockies starter Chad Bettis gave up five runs in 5 1/3 innings.
Goldschmidt homered in the first inning and Segura homered in the third to stake Miller to a 2-0 lead.
Colorado countered with three homers in the fourth to take a 6-2 lead.
Story led off the inning with his third homer, and Hundley hit his three-run blast after singles by Carlos Gonzalez and Gerardo Parra, who beat out a dribbler to second base.
Ben Paulsen doubled off Tomas' glove after a long run to the line and LeMahieu followed with a two-run homer.
Miller, a hard-luck 6-17 with a 3.02 ERA with Atlanta last season, gave up only 13 homers last season. He allowed as many as two in a game only once.
NOTES: If Arizona RHP Zack Greinke pitched with the flu on Monday as one news outlet reported, manager Chip Hale said it did not affect his performance. "I think what bothered him was their bats and location of the pitches," Hale said. "If he had the flu and it was an issue, he probably wouldn't have been able to start." Greinke gave up nine hits and seven runs in four innings of a 10-5 loss to Colorado. ... Arizona purchased RHP Kyle Drabek from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday to add to the bullpen when RHP Silvino Bracho was optioned to Reno. Bracho gave up a three-run homer to Colorado 3B Nolan Arenado in 1 1/3 innings in the opener on Monday. ... Arizona CF A.J. Pollock had a plate placed on the tip of his right elbow in surgery Tuesday. No timetable was given for his return. ... Arizona rookie OF Socrates Brito made his first major league start in center field on Tuesday. ... RF Carlos Gonzales has made seven Opening Day starts for Colorado and it agrees with him. He homered Monday and is 16-for-34 (.471) with three homers, three doubles and four RBIs.
