Colorado Rockies get the victory behind Morneau's home run, win 5-4

The Rockies got the win on Monday night after a solid pitching performance from Tyler Matzek and a three-run homer from Justin Morneau.

The Rockies quickly got the offense going in the first inning. Corey Dickerson singled and Troy Tulowitzki followed with a 13 pitch walk to set the table for Justin Morneau. Morneau crushed a 91 mph fastball over the right field wall to put the Rockies ahead 3-0.

Corey Dickerson would add on to that lead in the second with an RBI single, scoring Tyler Matzek.
