DENVER - Rockies Opening Day starter Jorge De La Rosa was back in action Monday, making a four-inning start for Triple-A Albuquerque in his first game action since going on the disabled list April 27 with a strained left groin.
"De La threw about 75 pitches," Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. "He's healthy. He'll probably make another start."
De La Rosa allowed three hits and two runs, one earned, leaving the game with a 3-2 lead and not factoring in the decision in Albuquerque's eventual 4-3 victory over Tacoma.
De La Rosa got off to a rocky start with the Rockies this season, going 1-3 with a 10.
