06/20/2010 - Denver, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Rickie Weeks' two-run double jumpstarted a five-run ninth inning, and the Milwaukee Brewers salvaged a game from this three-contest set with Colorado by beating the Rockies, 6-1.
Weeks, Corey Hart and Prince Fielder blasted three consecutive doubles in the final inning to propel the Brewers to only their second win in their last 13 games at Coors Field. Hart finished with two hits and three RBI, and George Kottaras also had a pair of hits in the win.
Randy Wolf did not factor into the decision after allowing just one run, three hits and four walks in seven strong innings. Trevor Hoffman (2-4) earned the win with a perfect eighth inning.
Brad Hawpe's home run accounted for all of Colorado's offense, as the Rockies had a three-game win streak snapped. Aaron Cook's line matched Wolf's, as he gave up one run, three hits and four walks in seven innings, but Manuel Corpas (1-4) yielded five runs without recording an out to take the loss.
In the ninth, with the game deadlocked at one, the Brewers took control.
With Corpas pitching for Colorado, Kottaras led off with a double and moved to third when Alcides Escobar reached on a fielder's choice. After pinch-hitter Joe Inglett walked to load the bases, Weeks launched a two-run double off the wall in center, and Hart followed with another double to plate a pair for a 5-1 advantage.
Juan Rincon came on to get out of the mess, but Fielder greeted him with an RBI double for a five-run Milwaukee lead, which held as the final margin.
The teams traded runs early on, and then the pitchers took over.
Wolf's lone blemish came in the second inning, when Hawpe took him deep for a one-out solo shot.
Cook's only mistake was in the third, after he issued back-to-back one-out walks to Wolf and Weeks. Hart followed with a base hit to allow Wolf to score and tie the game.
Game Notes
The Rockies had a five-game home win streak snapped....The season series is tied, 3-3...Colorado is now 9-9 all time on Father's Day...The Rockies went 0- for-5 with runners in scoring position, while Milwaukee was 4-for-15.

Michael Vick is back, Brett Favre isn't and the NFC East remains the best division in the NFC, maybe in all of football.
As players start to gather for the start of another season, some things change and some stay the same in the world of the NFL.
The NFC East has been the dominant division in the National Conference for a while, despite limited playoff success, save for the New York Giants surprise Super Bowl win two seasons ago.
Hell, there's a generation of kids in Texas who have never seen the Cowboys win a playoff game (last win was in 1996).
But collectively, the Giants, Eagles, Cowboys and Redskins (well, maybe not so much the Redskins) are as good as a division gets in an NFC conference that has struggled to stay competitive with the AFC side.
Sports bettors have both acknowledged the NFC East's dominance, as one glance at the NFL future odds menu will show.
Looking over the NFL betting odds at online sports book MySportsbook.com we see the top three teams listed to win the NFC Championship are all from the NFC East:
Dallas Cowboys - 7 - 1
Philadelphia Eagles - 13 - 2
New York Giants - 9 - 2
Slotting in behind these three are two teams from the NFC North: the Minnesota Vikings (15-2) and the Chicago Bears (10-1).
Again, despite the lack of recent playoff success, the Dallas Cowboys are popular with the sports betting community, as they hold 14% of all the money wagered on who will win the NFC Championship.
So far, the New York Giants are the bettors' favorite to represent their conference in the Super Bowl, as they have 24% of the overall NFC Championship betting volume.
And what about the Philadelphia Eagles? For the most part, the Eagles had a very productive offseason, the kind that could bring them back to the top.
They had a good draft adding the likes of WR Jeremy Maclin and RB LeSean McCoy.
Unfortunately, the team received a blow when long-time defensive coordinator Jim Johnson passed away on Tuesday.
But this team will make a real run at the division title this year. Going into the regular season, Philly is listed at +240 to win the division.
Last season the Eagles were 9-6-1 SU and 10-6 ATS.
Teams from the NFC East will play teams from the AFC West in the regular season and the Eagles haven't really been a good bet in the last 20 games against the likes of San Diego, Oakland, K.C. and Denver, only going 8-12 ATS.
Two seasons removed from that Super Bowl title, the New York Giants see themselves listed as the odds-on favorite in NFC East championship futures at +162.
Plaxico Burress is gone and with him all the bad publicity surrounding the gun in the sweatpants incident, but can they replace him in the offense?
Last season the Giants were a very reliable bet going 12-4 ATS.
In the Giants' last 20 games against fellow teams from the NFC East; they are 13-7 ATS.
Dallas is listed at +240 to win the division.
Dallas went 9-7 SU and 7-9 ATS last season and with the amount of talent the Cowboys have, a similar performance won't do.
The Cowboys have been atrocious against divisional rivals, going 6-14 ATS in their last 20.
The Washington Redskins are longshots to win the division at +550.
