Getting your player ready...
Outfielder Carlos Gonzalez received a haircut in the clubhouse before the game, leaving a spiked mane of hair befitting his “Little Pony” nickname. Gonzalez then took his cuts against the Cubs, extending his hitting streak to 11 games with a third-inning double. Gonzalez has 16 hits during the streak.
Error of ways.
The Rockies’ run of five consecutive games without an error ended when Troy Tulowitzki mishandled Mike Fontenot’s groundball in the fourth inning. It led to an unearned run.
King of Hill.
Koyie Hill produced an unlikely big hit for the Cubs. Making his first start since May 9, the catcher fisted a fourth-inning single into center field for his second RBI of the season.
