DENVER -- In the first game of their final-week postseason push, the Rockies played the way they were put together in a 10-1 bashing of the Phillies at Coors Field on Monday night.
The Rockies moved within a half-game of the Cardinals for the second National League Wild Card spot thanks to St. Louis' loss to the Brewers. Colorado remains a game behind the Dodgers in the NL West, pending Los Angeles' game against the D-backs.
David Dahl hit a two-run home run in the fourth inning, while Gerardo Parra's three hits and two RBIs and Trevor Story, who made his return from missing a week with a right elbow injury, doubled twice to pace the Rockies' impressive offensive output.
