The Colorado Rockies staged a late comeback to defeat the Arizona Diamondbacks 3-2 at Chase Field on Friday night.
Chad Stevens delivered a tie-breaking RBI single in the ninth inning after T. J.
Rumfield drove in the tying run in the eighth.
The victory improved the Rockies to 20-32 and ended Arizona's season-high five-game winning streak, dropping the Diamondbacks to 26-24.
Stevens, a 27-year-old rookie called up from Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday, recorded his first hit of the season off reliever Ryan Thompson.
He drove in Sterlin Thompson, who had hit a full-count double.
Colorado starter Tomoyuki Sugano pitched a season-high 6 2/3 innings, allowing two runs on six hits with one walk and three strikeouts.
He threw 97 pitches across seven different pitch types, giving the Rockies their first quality start since May 1.
"Our bullpen was in bad shape, and we needed him to go a long time," said third base coach Warren Schaeffer.
"He was efficient with his pitches, throwing strikes and just doing what he does with all of his pitches, keeping guys off balance.
He's been huge for us all year, and tonight was no exception."
Arizona took an early lead against Sugano.
Lourdes Gurriel Jr. had a sacrifice fly in the second inning and an RBI single in the fourth.
Gurriel left the game in the sixth inning due to left hamstring tightness after making a sliding catch.
Diamondbacks starter Mike Soroka allowed one run on four hits over six innings.
He escaped a bases-loaded, no-out jam in the fifth inning by limiting Colorado to a sacrifice fly from Jake McCarthy.
Arizona preserved its lead in the seventh with defensive catches from Corbin Carroll and Ryan Waldschmidt.
The Rockies tied the game in the eighth inning when Rumfield hit an RBI double off Juan Morillo to score Hunter Goodman.
Reliever Antonio Senzatela earned the win with 1 2/3 scoreless innings, while Thompson took the loss.
"It was an awesome job by [Thompson] hitting a double there," Stevens said.
"Then I don't think I could have drawn it up much better by driving him in."
Stevens expressed satisfaction with his first major league RBI. "I couldn't ask for much more," he said.
The teams continue their series Saturday night, with Arizona sending right-hander Zac Gallen to the mound against Colorado right-hander Michael Lorenzen.
