Rockies 14, Diamondbacks 12: The bats come alive in the desert

It was a classic showdown in the desert between the Colorado Rockies (8-37) and the Arizona Diamondbacks (24-22) as the bats were hot, and the pitchers just tried to survive.

The two offenses combined for 26 runs on 34 hits and set a season-high for MLB with 36+ hard-hit balls in the game. The 14-12 victory for the Rockies handed Arizona their first loss in franchise history when they have scored 12 or more runs in a game, making them 151-1 in that category.

It also marked the first major league victory for interim manager Warren Schaefer.
