DENVER, July 26 (UPI) -- Preston Wilson homered twice Saturday and became the first National Leaguer with 100 RBI this season as Colorado had a 13-8 win over Milwaukee.

Wilson's first home run was a two-run shot off Brewers starter Matt Kinney in the third inning that brought the Rockies within 5-4. After Milwaukee scored three runs in the fourth, Wilson added a solo blast off Dave Burba in the bottom half to get Colorado back to 8-6.

In the eighth, Wilson bounced into a double play with the bases loaded. Still, he has seven RBI in his last four games and three homers in the last two contests.

The Rockies took the lead with four runs in the sixth inning. Lefthander Valerio de los Santos (1-3) took the loss. The rally made a winner of Aaron Cook (4-6).
