BOX SCORE SCOREBOARD

Ezequiel Tovar hit a bases-loaded single in the bottom of the 11th inning to cap a four-hit game, and the Colorado Rockies rallied to beat the scorching Philadelphia Phillies 3-2 in Denver on Friday night.

Colorado handed the Phillies a rare loss and ended Philadelphia's six-game winning streak.

Jacob Stallings had a two-out, pinch-hit home run in the bottom of the ninth to tie it and Kris Bryant had two hits for the Rockies, who have played three straight games that have gone past the 10th inning.

Tyler Kinley (3-1) pitched one inning for the win.


Edmundo Sosa homered and doubled, Nick Castellanos also went deep and J.T Realmuto had two hits for Philadelphia, which was without Bryce Harper for a majority of Friday night's game.

Harper was ejected to end the top of the first for arguing balls and strikes. Harper was unhappy with the second strike called by home plate umpire Brian Walsh and said something to him after striking out swinging. Walsh then tossed Harper.

The Phillies were an out away from winning when Stallings homered off closer Jose Alvarado to send it to extra innings.

Both teams had chances in the 10th but Colorado cashed in in the 11th against Gregory Soto (1-2). Soto intentionally walked Jordan Beck and then walked Ryan McMahon on five pitches with one out. Tovar then singled to left to win it.

Rockies starter Ty Blach held the Phillies without a hit until Realmuto's one-out single in the fourth inning, then doubled that total in the fifth. Castellanos led off the frame with a 445-foot homer to center field, his sixth of the season, and one out later, Sosa lined his third homer of the season into the seats in left to make it 2-0.

Blach allowed two runs on five hits in 6 2/3 innings. He walked one and struck out two.

Colorado got a run back in the bottom of the fifth against Phillies starter Cristopher Sanchez. With one out, Hunter Goodman doubled to center, moved to third on Alan Trejo's sharp single and scored on Tovar's single.

Sanchez allowed one run on seven hits with a walk and two strikeouts in 5 1/3 innings.
