_______Rockies 20-30 vs Phillies 28-24_______
_______Jorge De La Rosa 1-2 7.78 vs Jamie Moyer 4-3 4.37_______
Rockies: De La Rosa's numbers for the season aren't good, and his high pitch counts are preventing him from getting deep into games, but in his last three starts, he won one and pitched well enough to keep the Rockies in the other two. On Monday night, he pitched 5 1/3 innings and gave up three runs, two earned, in a no-decision that the Rockies eventually won over the Giants. De La Rosa labored for the first three innings, then corrected himself by slowing down his upper body and pitched well the rest of the time he was in the contest.
Phillies: Moyer has had a strong May, going 3-1 with a 4.18 ERA in four starts, including the most recent one, which was his best of the season -- no runs in six innings against the Nationals. Moyer also has walked only four batters this month, covering 14 innings.
Rockies first baseman Todd Helton has reached in 13 of his last 24 plate appearances, but his double in Sunday's 4-1 victory over the Mets was his first extra-base hit since his home run on May 18 against the Twins. ... Rockies right fielder Seth Smith is rapidly losing his Little League batting average and heading toward the rest of the Major Leagues. He went 5-for-8 as a pinch-hitter late last season, but no one has a .625 average for long. By going 1-for-6 -- but with a three-run homer on Sunday -- in two starts since his callup from Triple-A Colorado Springs, his career mark is down to .429.
Manuel decided to give Pat Burrell a rest Thursday, but it lasted only seven innings. Burrell, who was in a 3-for-27 slump before that, has gone 5-for-11 with three home runs and three RBI since then. ... Jimmy Rollins went 7-for-19 (.368) with four doubles in the Astros series.
