Marquez (4-2) pitched 5.2 innings, allowing two runs on eight hits and one walk, while striking out five in Sunday's 8-4 win over Colorado.
Since being called up to replace an injured Jon Gray (foot) in the Colorado rotation, Marquez has been more than solid when it's his turn. He wasn't at his best against St. Louis, but he got out of a few early jams and limited the Cardinals to just two runs to win his fourth straight start. During the win streak, the rookie hurler has an ERA of 1.46 and a WHIP of 1.18 over 24.2 innings. His next time out will be at sea level when the Rockies take on Clayton Richard and the Padres in San Diego.
