 CHICAGO (AP) - Alfonso Soriano hit a game-ending two-run single to give the Chicago Cubs a 10-9 win over the Colorado Rockies on Monday night, setting off a wild celebration after the Cubs bullpen blew an 8-3 lead in the ninth inning.
Troy Tulowitzki hit a three-run homer for the Rockies, who scored six runs in the ninth.
After Todd Helton doubled in a run with no outs in the ninth off reliever Scott Eyre, Bobby Howry (4-4) was greeted by back-to-back RBI singles from Garrett Atkins and Brad Hawpe. Then Tulowitzki followed with a three-run homer to put the Rockies ahead 9-8. Howry is the closer while Ryan Dempster is unavailable because of a strained oblique muscle.
