DENVER, Aug. 8 (UPI) -- A solo home run by Dustan Mohr in the bottom of the 11th inning Monday afternoon gave Colorado a 4-3 win over Florida in the opener of a double-header.

The two-out blast made a winner of reliever Scott Dohmann (1-1), who hurled two shutout innings. Ryan Shealy and Cory Sullivan both had two hits and one RBI for the Rockies, winners of 5 of their last 7 games.

Matt Treanor had two RBI and Chris Aguila added two hits and one RBI for Marlins, who have lost 2 of 3.

Losing pitcher Valerio De Los Santos fell to 1-1. The contest was a make-up for one of the games postponed in late April because of snow and inclement weather. It is the 14th of 20 consecutive days on which the Marlins, who originally were scheduled for an off-day, will be playing on a Monday.
