Headline

Willi Castro and TJ Rumfield each drive in two runs as the Rockies beat the Cubs, 5-2

CHICAGO -- Willi Castro continued his hot streak with two RBI and TJ Rumfield hit a two-run home run as the Colorado Rockies evened their series against the Chicago Cubs with a 5-2 win Tuesday.

Castro is 7 for 13 with two home runs, three walks and nine RBI over the past three games.

Ryan Feltner allowed two runs on six hits and struck out seven in 4 2/3 innings for the Rockies (28-46), who won for just the second time in the past six games. Four Rockies relievers combined to hold the Cubs scoreless over the final seven innings, with Blas Castano (1-0) recording the win and Jaden Hill pitching the ninth for his first career save.

Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong , who hit for the cycle Monday , led off with a home run for the second straight game. Crow-Armstrong has reached base in 20 straight games, hitting safely in 19 of them.

The Cubs (38-36) added another run in the second when Matt Shaw scored from third on a wild pitch after a Miguel Amaya ground-rule double.

Castro doubled in Jake McCarthy to get the Rockies on the board in the third. Rumfield followed with a 385-foot shot to right center to make it 3-2.

Cubs starter Edward Cabrera (4-4) allowed five runs on three hits in 4 1/3 innings, leaving the game in the fifth with a right hand cramp and two on base. Ryan Rolison allowed both inherited runners to score, one on a wild pitch and one on a Castro fielder's choice.

The Cubs are batting 3 for 39 (.077) over the past three games and 12 for 83 (.145) over the past 11 with runners in scoring position, going 0 for 8 on Tuesday and leaving nine runners on base.
