Rockies Rally For Late Win Over Orioles
In baseball, each game is unique. This one was no different.

The Colorado Rockies grabbed a 8-4 win over the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards. Colorado left fielder Jim Edmonds was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 to earn player of the game honors. Mike Boddicker, credited with the win, is now 10-7. He allowed 3 runs on 11 hits in 7 innings.

Colorado relied on the bat of Biff Pocoroba to get the win. The catcher ripped a bases-clearing triple in the top of the eighth inning to put the Rockies ahead, 6-3. For the game, Pocoroba had 1 double and 1 triple in 4 at-bats.

"Our guys are never satisfied," said Colorado manager Ben Thompson.

The second-place Rockies lifted their record to 67-43.
