Rockies Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Tigers
The Detroit Tigers and Colorado Rockies provided some drama at Mile High Stadium.

The Colorado Rockies eked out a 5-4 win versus the Detroit Tigers at Mile High Stadium. Nobody did more than pitcher Orel Hershiser, who captured player of the game honors. Hershiser, the winner, moves to 4-1. He threw 8 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 6 and giving up 3 walks.

The game was at a stalemate until shortstop Gary Disarcina came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Detroit pitcher Tony Fossas, he hit a 0-1 slider for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Colorado on top, 5-4.

"I'll probably toss and turn tonight," Detroit manager Julio Izquierdo said following the tough loss.

The Rockies own a robust 33-16 mark.
