Rockies Stumble, Lose to Diamondbacks
The Arizona Diamondbacks knocked off the Colorado Rockies, 11-3. Arizona starter Juan Nieves pitched well enough to earn top player honors. Colorado has now lost 8 consecutive games.

The Diamondbacks grabbed the lead in the top of the seventh. With two out, Sandy Alomar Jr., who is a two-time Gold Glove winner, hit a 3-run home run off Brett Gideon, putting Arizona in front, 9-1. For Alomar Jr., it was his 16th home run of the season.

In postgame comments to the Arizona Observer, Nieves said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
