Diamondbacks hand Rockies their 1st home loss

The Arizona Diamondbacks (10-8) hand the Rockies (13-5) their first home loss of the season with a 5-4 victory over Colorado today at Coors Field.

Arizona heads to San Francisco for a three-game series with the Giants as they continue on the nine-game road trip. The Diamondbacks are 2-4 on the current road swing, winning only the getaway games at Yankee Stadium and now Coors Field.

The D'backs score two runs in the top of the ninth today to pick up the win. Heath Bell (2-0) gets the win in relief and J.J. Putz grabs the save. Didi Gregorius started the ninth-inning rally with a single, went to third on a double by A.J. Pollock and scored the tying run on a ground out. Geraldo Parra's sacrifice fly, later in the inning, scored Pollock with the go-ahead run.

Putz worked out of a jam in the bottom of the ninth as Arizona picks up its 10th win of season.
