David Dahl is very, very good at baseball; historically good. If Dahl gets a hit today against the Phillies, he will be in sole possession of the record for longest hitting streak to begin career. The current record holder is Chuck Aleno, who hit in 17 straight for Cincinnati in 1941.
Mark Reynolds has injured left hand | MLB.com

This isn't the first time the team has dealt with a hamate injury, as former Rockie Troy Tulowitzki fractured the bone in 2010 and landed on the disabled list. The best hope with Reynolds is that the bone isn't broken and he can return soon, otherwise the Rockies will be in desperate need of a right-handed bat.
