DENVER (AP) Corbin Carroll homered twice and drove in three runs and the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Colorado Rockies 8-6 on Sunday in the rubber game of the three-game series.
Nolan Arenado and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. hit RBI singles for a 2-0 lead in the third after Carroll and Geraldo Perdomo got things started – after rain delay of one hour and 45 minutes – with back-to-back walks off Michael Lorenzen with two outs.
Carroll hit his sixth home run following a two-out RBI single by Ildemaro Vargas for a 5-0 lead in the fourth. Carroll then hit a solo shot in the sixth to make it 8-2.
Michael Soroka (6-2) struck out eight and gave up two runs on six hits and two walks in 5 2/3 innings. Paul Sewald issued a two-out walk in the ninth before finishing off his 10th save in 11 opportunities
The Rockies didn’t have a hit off Soroka until TJ Rumfield, Troy Johnston and Willi Castro had three straight two-out doubles to cut it to 5-2 in the fourth.
Gurriel answered in the fifth with his first homer this season and Gabriel Moreno scored on Jose Fernandez’s single to make it 7-2. Moreno had three hits and scored twice.
Jake McCarthy and Kyle Karros had RBI singles and Castro and Brett Sullivan added sacrifice flies in a four-run eighth off Brandon Pfaadt that cut it to 8-6.
Pfaadt got one out and was charged with four runs.
Lorenzen (2-6) gave up seven runs – six earned – on nine hits and three walks in 4 2/3 innings.
