Mickey Moniak homered, Antonio Senzatela pitched solidly into the sixth inning and the Colorado Rockies beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 4-2 on Sunday in Denver.
Senzatela (3-10) allowed a pair of runs over 5 1/3 innings to earn the win for the second straight start. Senzatela had gone nine games (eight starts) without a win before beating Washington on Tuesday night.
Seth Halvorsen got the final three outs to pick up his sixth save. He was the last of five pitchers that held Arizona to five hits.
Randal Grichuk had two hits and Josh Naylor scored both runs for the D-backs on his 28th birthday. Arizona had its three-game winning streak snapped and managed just two runs after scoring 19 over the first two games of the series.
The D-backs had a season-high 21 hits on Friday night and 10 more Saturday night but were held to one extra-base hit on Sunday.
They threatened in the ninth when Grichuk hit a two-out double off the wall in right, but Halvorsen got pinch hitter Ketel Marte to fly out to end the game.
Arizona took the lead in the second when Naylor walked, Eugenio Suarez doubled and Grichuk hit a sacrifice fly. Grichuk helped extend the lead in the fourth as Naylor hit a one-out single, went to second on a wild pitch and scored on Grichuk’s single.
Brandon Pfaadt held Colorado to two singles through four innings but was hit hard in the fifth.
Brenton Doyle, Kyle Farmer and Braxton Fulford led off with consecutive singles to make it 2-1. Pfaadt retired the next two batters before Moniak followed with a home run just inside the foul pole in right field to put the Rockies in front. It was Moniak’s 11th of the season and sixth over his last 11 games.
Pfaadt (8-5) walked Jordan Beck but got out of the inning to end his day. He allowed four runs on six hits and struck out seven over five innings.
