Rockies Deal Chukars 6-5 Defeat
The performance of Ryan Spikes proved critical in helping Grand Junction beat Idaho Falls, 6-5. The Rockies shortstop went 2 for 3 with a home run and a double, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Grand Junction reliever Tyler Lewis was the winner. His record is now 1-1. Héctor Arnaldo took the loss. Grand Junction now has a record of 45-22 with the win.

It could have been a different outcome for Grand Junction, had it not been for Jace Avina, the 20-year old right fielder . Avina contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put Grand Junction up, 6-5.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Grand Junction manager Buck Showalter.
