This was a well-pitched game until the eighth inning. Jorge De La Rosa held his composure, surrendered one hit, and struck out two in three innings of ball. Jason Hammel followed him and allowed a solo homer, the only real blemish in his outing. He also struck out two.

Matt Daley had a bit of trouble in the eighth when he allowed three runs on three hits and a balk. He had an additional balk, but that came after the scoring was done.

Miguel Olivo provided the offensive firepower this afternoon with a two-run homer in the second inning and an RBI double later in the game. Troy Tulowitzki had two hits, while Jay Payton and Jonathan Herrera drove in the other two runs.
