Rockies Shimmy Past Blue Jays, 8-7
Chris Sabo had a productive game, enabling the Colorado Rockies to defeat the Toronto Blue Jays, 8-7, in 12 innings. Sabo went 4 for 5 with a home run and 3 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 2 for the Rockies. Jack McDowell earned the save for Colorado, his 1st of the year. Colorado is now 33-19, while Toronto is 34-17.

Colorado needed the clutch hitting of Juan Gonzalez to seal the deal. The left fielder swatted a solo home run in the top of the 12th inning to put the Rockies on top, 8-7. For the game, Gonzalez had 1 home run and 1 single in 6 at-bats.

Gonzalez told a Colorado Daily News reporter that he felt "like dancing the hula" after the win.
