Former Chicago Cub Daniel Murphy had three hits including a two run double in the first and Charlie Blackmon hit a three run homer in a five run sixth inning to power the Colorado Rockies to a 10-3 win over the Cubs at Coors Field Tuesday night. The win was the tenth straight at home for the Rockies. Rookie Peter Lambert went five innings and allowed one run and three hits in the win-his second over the Cubs in five days. He won at Wrigley Field last week. Jason Heyward hit a solo homer for the Cubs and Cub starter Jose Quintana took the loss allowing four runs, three earned, over 4 2/3 innings. The Cubs will attempt to avoid a sweep Wednesday afternoon as they finish up the three game set. It will be Cole Hamels (5-2) for the Cubs and Antonio Senzatela (5-4) for the Rockies.
