DENVER, June 13 (UPI) -- Troy Tulowitzki scored three runs as part of a Colorado rally Friday and Ubaldo Jimenez threw a complete game, bringing the Rockies a 6-4 win over Seattle.
It was Colorado's ninth straight victory.
Jimenez (5-6) went the distance for only the second time in his four-year career, even though he allowed four runs on eight hits. His other complete-game effort came last year against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Seattle took an early 3-0 lead, but the Rockies staged a comeback with the help of two unearned runs.
Tulowitzki hit a solo homer in the fourth to bring Colorado within 4-3 and Jimenez helped his own cause with a single that drove in Tulowitzki in the sixth.
A wild pitch in the seventh allowed Tulowitzki to race in from third with the final run of the game.
Jarrod Washburn (3-5) took the loss, giving up five runs on six hits with three walks. Washburn has lost five straight decisions.
