Nolan Jones singled in the go-ahead run in a three-run eighth inning and the Colorado Rockies beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-4 to snap a five-game losing streak.
Charlie Blackmon, Ezequiel Tovar and Ryan McMahon opened the eighth inning with singles to load the bases against Joe Mantiply , the third Arizona pitcher.
Scott McGough entered and retired Elias Diaz on a liner to shortstop Geraldo Perdomo before Brandon Rodgers' two-run single tied the score. Jones followed with his go-ahead single to center for a 5-4 lead, and pinch-hitter Alan Trejo greeted Kyle Nelson with a single to drive in Rodgers. Matt Koch struck out two in a 1-2-3 eighth and Justin Lawrence struck out the side in the ninth for his 10th save in 14 chances.
