Veteran Hawkins returns; Bergman to Triple-A

MIAMI -- The Colorado Rockies reinstated right-hander LaTroy Hawkins from the 15-day disabled list, as the veteran rejoined the ballclub with Corey Dickerson for the series opener against the Marlins.

Sidelined since April 22 with biceps tendinitis, Hawkins went 1-1 with a 10.50 ERA before the injury. He had pitched just six innings, giving up seven runs on 11 hits with seven strikeouts and two walks.

Hawkins got a cortisone shot and took a week off from pitching to rest his arm. Surprisingly enough, Hawkins said it marked just the third shot of his 21-year big league career.
