08/22/2010 - Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dexter Fowler went 2-for-3 and drove in the only run of the game in the eighth inning, as Colorado edged Arizona, 1-0, to avoid a three-game sweep at Chase Field.
Jhoulys Chacin (6-9) was sensational on the mound for the Rockies, giving up just three hits and a walk while striking out nine in 7 2/3 innings.
Joe Beimel recorded the final out of the eighth, and Huston Street pitched a perfect ninth to put an end to Colorado's three-game slide.
Aaron Heilman (4-5) took the loss behind Daniel Hudson, who did not factor in the decision despite allowing a mere four hits and two walks in seven scoreless frames. Arizona, which did not have a runner advance past first, had lost four straight before this set.
Offense was tough to come by for both teams throughout the game. As a result, the Rockies used their speed to break a scoreless tie in the eighth.
Eric Young Jr. singled with one out and promptly stole second. Fowler then smacked a comebacker that hit off the mound and bounced into center, scoring Young without a play at the plate.
The Rockies left the bases loaded in the top of the ninth, but Street, who blew a two-run lead on Friday, set down Arizona's 2-3-4 hitters in order to notch his 10th save of the season.
Game Notes
Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez was back in the starting lineup for the first time since injuring his knee on Wednesday...Hudson also struck out nine...This was Colorado's third 1-0 win this season. It was also the third time Arizona has lost by a 1-0 score...Arizona was trying for its first home sweep of the Rockies since September 26-28, 2008.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
