The rain couldn’t stop the Rockies’ mighty bats (*chuckle*) or their pitchers from craftily working out of trouble (*snort*) and limiting the damage just enough to win (*guffaw*).
The Rockies took it to the Cubs in a rain-shortened game, despite the Cubs’ early lead. Homers from Dave Sappelt and Starlin Castro, as well as a two-hit night from Welington Castillo and a two-walk night from Alfonso Soriano, were the highlights.
