Rockies 9, Dodgers 5
Rockies 9, Dodgers 5: Michael Cuddyer homered, drove in three runs and scored three more as host Colorado salvaged the finale of the three-game series between the National League West rivals.
Wilin Rosario recorded two RBIs and DJ LeMahieu collected three hits for the Rockies, who snapped their three-game losing streak and won for just the third time in nine contests. Colorado's Carlos Gonzalez left the game for a pinch-hitter in the sixth inning after suffering a strained upper back during his at-bat in the fifth.
Adrian Gonzalez went 4-for-5 with a homer and two RBIs while Hanley Ramirez extended his hitting streak to 15 games with a ninth-inning single for Los Angeles, which had its four-game winning streak halted. Matt Kemp also went deep and Yasiel Puig had an RBI single after exiting Wednesday's contest with a bruised left hip.
Cuddyer, whose franchise-record 27-game hitting streak came to an end Tuesday, delivered a two-run double during a four-run third against Chris Capuano (2-6) as the Rockies took a 5-2 lead. He walked and scored in the fifth before leading off the seventh with his 15th home run of the season, which made it 9-4.
Jhoulys Chacin (8-3) extended his winning streak to five games despite allowing four runs and nine hits over 5 2/3 innings. The right-hander, who is unbeaten in his last nine starts, tossed 15 scoreless frames over his last two outings.
