Brenton Doyle homered, doubled and tied his career high with five RBIs, Zac Veen doubled for his first career RBI and the Colorado Rockies beat the Milwaukee Brewers 7-2 on Thursday in Denver.
Doyle homered leading off the bottom of the first and finished with three hits for Colorado, which avoided a three-game sweep against Milwaukee. Michael Toglia added an RBI double in the Rockies' five-run eighth inning. Toglia finished with three hits and Scott Alexander (1-1) got the win with an inning of relief.
Jackson Chourio singled to extend his hitting streak to 12 games for the Brewers. Brice Turang went 0-for-5 and failed to get a hit for the first time this season.
Ryan McMahon, who had two hits, started the eighth with a double off reliever Joel Payamps (0-1). Sean Bouchard walked and Toglia doubled to make it 3-2. Mickey Moniak was intentionally walked with one out, and after Kris Bryant fanned, Doyle hit a bases-clearing double.
Veen, who made his major league debut Tuesday night, capped the rally with an RBI double off the scoreboard in right field.
Milwaukee right-hander Quinn Priester, acquired from Boston on Monday, went five innings in his first major league start of the season. He allowed a run on five hits and had traffic on the bases in every inning but his last.
Rockies starter Ryan Feltner set down the first seven batters he faced before running into trouble in the fourth. Christian Yelich and William Contreras started the inning with doubles to tie the game and Feltner walked the next two batters in a stretch where he threw 11 balls over 12 pitches.
He settled down, inducing Joey Ortiz into a lineout and striking out Oliver Dunn and Eric Haase to limit the damage to a single run. Feltner gave up a run and struck out seven in six innings.
The Rockies went ahead in the seventh when Moniak led off with a walk, went to second on a sacrifice and scored on Doyle's single. Milwaukee tied it in the eighth when Isaac Collins grounded into a double play that scored Chourio.
