Rockies Continue Hot Start to Season With Win
Colorado picked up a win at Wrigley Field 1979-2005, bumping off the Chicago Cubs, 5-1. Pitcher Matt Shoemaker was a major reason the Rockies emerged victorious. The win gives Colorado a record of 19-4.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Ryan Sweeney? The Colorado center fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Rockies on top, 3-0. For the game, Sweeney had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"I'm proud of the way we took care of business and got the 'W' today," Shoemaker told the Colorado Times. "Whatever it takes."
