Arizona Diamondbacks vs Colorado Rockies in Denver

DENVER, July 5 (UPI) -- Felipe Lopez hit a seventh-inning RBI single Sunday, boosting the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 4-3 win over Colorado.

Lopez's only hit in the game snapped a 3-3 tie with two outs in the top of the seventh and brought Arizona all the way back from a 3-0 deficit. Mark Reynolds hit a three-run sixth-inning homer for the Diamondbacks, who have won only three of their last 11 contests.

Winner Dan Haren (8-5) surrendered three runs -- one earned -- and seven hits in six innings with no walks and six strikeouts.

Closer Chad Qualls followed three others relievers with a perfect ninth for his 15th save.

Colorado's Troy Tulowitzki hit a fourth-inning solo homer and Todd Helton drove in a run and had two of eight hits for the Rockies, who have lost four of six.

Losing pitcher Ubaldo Jimenez (6-8) surrendered four runs and four hits in 6 1/3 innings with five walks and eight strikeouts.
