Jacob Young led off against Seth Halvorsen (1-2) by bunting pinch runner Riley Adams to third. With the infield in, Michael Toglia made a diving stop on CJ Abrams grounder for the out at first base and Young held at third, bringing up Wood, who had hit a two-run homer in the fourth.
Toglia singled leading off the Colorado 11th against Ryan Loutos (1-0) and runner Ryan McMahon scored from second to make it 3-2.
McMahon had two hits for the Rockies, who had won four straight for the first time since May of 2024.

In the bottom half, Abrams led off with a single and Wood lined a homer to center, his 19th of the season, for a 2-0 advantage.
Colorado quickly tied it. Orlando Arcia singled with one out in the fifth and scored on a double by Jordan Beck. Mickey Moniak lined a single to right, scoring Beck with the tying run.
McMahon singled leading off the sixth and, with one out, Doyle doubled him to third. Cole Henry replaced Williams and struck out Sam Hilliard and Arcia to end the threat.
Zach Brzykcy retired the first two Rockies in the 10th. Hunter Goodman walked, but Brzykcy struck out McMahon on a 3-2 pitch.
