Iannetta Blasts His 12th Homer over Pirates
Chris Iannetta blasted a three-run homer in the fifth inning Wednesday to lead the Rockies over the Pirates 7-4. Clint Barmes got things going for the Rockies with a sac fly in the second inning that scored Troy Tulowitzki. Matt Holliday followed with an RBI single in the third, then the Rockies plated five runs in the fifth, with the highlight being Iannetta’s dinger. The bullpen held onto the lead and Brian Fuentes pitched a flawless ninth inning, fanning two, to earn his 18th save of the season. Iannetta is hitting .276 with 12 homers and 44 RBI in 203 at-bats this season. (Rotoworld)
