Pueblo Published 35 day(s) ago
DENVER (AP) - Matt Holliday drove in two runs, including one on a double that bounced off the pitcher's glove, and Jeff Baker scored twice to lift the Colorado Rockies to a 5-3 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday.
     
Brad Hawpe, Ian Stewart and Garrett Atkins also drove in a run apiece for the defending NL champions, who closed out a seven-game homestand with a 6-1 mark.  With 11 more hits Wednesday, the Rockies had 49 in taking two of three against the Dodgers.
     
Glendon Rusch (3-1) earned his third straight victory, his longest streak since winning four in a row in September 2005 while a member of the Chicago Cubs.
