Colorado laid the wood on Kansas City at Kauffman Stadium.

Gaetti put Colorado up, 13-0, when he hit a grand slam home run off Jim Barr in the top of the sixth. His 20th home run of the season helped the Rockies capture the win.

"Today was a lot of fun," said Gaetti.

Colorado now has a 3-game win streak.
