_______Rockies 14-21 at Padres 12-23_______ 
_______Aaron Cook 5-1 2.40era vs Jake Peavy 4-1 2.22era_______

Rockies: You can't blame Aaron Cook for the Rockies' poor start. In fact, things would be worse without him, as Cook has stopped Rockies' losing streaks no less than five times already this season. The red-headed sinker-baller also has won five consecutive decisions, and the Rockies are 6-1 in his seven starts.

Padres: Peavy picked up his fourth victory of the season in his last start on May 3 against the Marlins, though he got off to a rough start. Peavy allowed a two-run, opposite-field home run to Mike Jacobs in the first inning, but settled down thereafter. Showing as nasty a slider as he has this season, the Cy Young winner struck out eight in going 5 2/3 innings. He retired 12 of the final 14 batters that he faced in the game. He'll make his second start against the Rockies. Peavy tossed eight scoreless innings against Colorado on April 17 in a game the Padres would lose, 2-1, in 22 innings.

Chris Iannetta has RBIs in three straight and four of his last five games. He has 14 RBIs this season in just 16 games. ... Omar Quintanilla has a six-game hitting streak. Five of his 10 hits this season are doubles.

San Diego committed three errors and couldn’t hold a three-run lead in falling 5-4 at Atlanta on Thursday.
Adrian Gonzalez went 3-for-5 and Kevin Kouzmanoff drove in two runs for the Padres, who have been outscored 25-12 during their four-game losing streak.
Gonzalez has hit safely in nine straight games, batting .375 with four homers and eight RBIs during the run. The first baseman is 6-for-14 with a homer lifetime against Cook.
