 HOUSTON (AP) - The Colorado Rockies snapped their longest losing streak of the season by beating their former ace and finally finishing a game the right way.
Jeff Francis allowed three hits in seven innings and the Rockies beat Jason Jennings and the Houston Astros 5-0 Saturday night to snap an eight-game skid.
Colorado had lost the first eight of a 10-game road trip and their nightmarish week featured four blown saves by Brian Fuentes. Francis said the Rockies never dwelled on the losses, knowing they played well enough to win at least half of them.
