SEATTLE, June 30 (UPI) -- Bobby Estalella's sacrifice fly in the top of the ninth inning off closer Kazuhiro Sasaki gave the Colorado Rockies a 4-3 victory Sunday over the Seattle Mariners.
After allowing just one earned run in his previous 28 appearances, Sasaki (2-2) was touched for two runs and two hits in one inning, blowing his fourth save in 22 chances and raising his ERA from 0.32 to 0.93.
Larry Walker, who tied a career high with four hits, started the Rockies' ninth-inning rally by belting a double to deep center field. One out and one walk later, Todd Hollandsworth tied it with a double to the gap in right-center.
After Brent Butler was intentionally walked, Estalella lofted Sasaki's next offering deep enough to left field to allow Todd Zeile to race home from third with the go-ahead run.
Colorado reliever Justin Speier (3-0) tossed a scoreless eighth inning for the victory and closer Jose Jimenez worked around a hit and a walk for his 21st save in 23 chances.
