Colorado and Chicago duked it out at Astrodome and the Rockies came out victorious.

The Rockies had to overcome a fine performance from Chicago pitcher Tim Wakefield to grab a 3-1 win at Astrodome. Wakefield allowed 1 earned run over 5.2 innings. Glendon Rusch, credited with the win, is now 6-2. He allowed 1 run on 6 hits in 5.1 innings. Jim R Johnson finished to wrap up his 1st save.

The Rockies benefited from a costly error in the bottom of the sixth. With Andy Stankiewicz at bat and Colorado leading 2-1, the Chicago miscue allowed Colorado to plate 1 and take the lead, 3-1.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Stankiewicz. "And not try to do too much."

With the win, Colorado goes to 20-21, while the Cubs fall to 28-12.
