Outfielder Charlie Blackmon was a spark at the top of the lineup for the Rockies, driving in three runs to power Colorado to a victory over the Brewers on Saturday.
Blackmon was 2-for-4 on the day, connecting for his ninth homer of the season in the second inning to give the Rockies a 3-0 lead. He added an RBI single in the seventh to help extend the lead to 5-1.
Blackmon has hits in eight of his last 10 games to raise his average to .271 on the season.
