Rockies' bats, Bettis best O's in Baltimore

BALTIMORE-- The Rockies used a four-run third inning to deny Oriole ace Chris Tillman his 15th win and snap first-place Baltimore's five-game win streak with Tuesday's 6-3 victory.

Colorado had four consecutive two-out hits, including Carlos Gonzalez's two-run double that looped just inside the foul line. They sent eight men to the plate in that critical third. Tillman went five innings, allowing nine hits and six runs to raise his season ERA to 3.47.

Rockies starter Chad Bettis went six innings and held the Orioles to two runs, both of which came on Adam Jones homer in the bottom of the fifth.
