Wade Miley (3-1) picked up the victory, his third straight, allowing just two runs on six hits with three walks and six strikeouts over seven innings.

The victory enabled the Diamondbacks to hold onto their seven-game lead in the National League West after second-place San Francisco beat the Padres Monday.

The Rockies made the game a bit closer in the ninth when Troy Tulowitzki hit a three-run homer.
