DENVER -- Forced into action by an injury to star third baseman Nolan Arenado, rookie Ryan McMahon delivered a two-run homer to dead center in the seventh inning to give the Rockies a 5-4 victory over the Dodgers on Friday night.
McMahon's third homer of the season -- and, coming off Dodgers reliever Zac Rosscup, the first of his career off a left-handed pitcher -- ended the Rockies' three-game losing streak, and pulled them to 2 1/2 games behind the National League West co-leading Dodgers and D-backs.
