Pittsburgh leadoff hitter Spencer Horwitz did the most damage, belting two of the homers and driving in a career-high six runs.

At Coors Field, despite weak lineups, the Rockies and Pirates have scored numerous runs this series. The odds favor the Pirates; high scores are likely.

The Rockies trailed 9-0 after the top of the first inning against the Pittsburgh Pirates. They trailed 16-12 after the top of the ninth. And yet, they won 17-16. Center fielder Brenton Doyle supplied the final blow, clubbing a walk-off, two-run homer off Pirates reliever Dennis Santana.
