Brenton Doyle drove in four runs, Elehuris Montero finished a triple shy of hitting for the cycle and the Colorado Rockies defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 14-5 Thursday night in a matchup of the first- and last-place teams in the NL West.
The Rockies pounded out a season-best 18 hits and their 14 runs tied a season high. Every Colorado starter had a hit, and seven had at least two hits. Nolan Jones added three RBIs for Colorado. The 25-year-old entered the game first in batting average, on-base percentage and slugging percentage among MLB rookies with at least 400 plate appearances.
Colorado had its way with Dodgers starter Ryan Yarbrough , who was making just his second start since being acquired from the Kansas City Royals on Aug. 1. The 31-year-old right-hander gave up nine earned runs and 11 hits, both career worsts.
