Colorado’s Aaron Cook gave up three runs on six hits with four walks and four strikeouts over 5 2/3 innings.
Padres starter Dustin Moseley allowed three runs on eight hits over five innings. He left the game after injuring his left shoulder during his at-bat in the bottom of the fifth.
San Diego’s Alberto Gonzalez drove in two runs, giving him six RBIs in his last five games.
Helton increased his average to .316 after going 4-for-4 with two doubles and his eighth home run.
