TJ Rumfield went 4-for-5 with a two-run homer and four RBIs, as the Colorado Rockies beat the Cincinnati Reds 10-3 on Saturday in Denver.

Tomoyuki Sugano (9-4) won his fifth straight decision, allowing three runs on six hits with no walks and three strikeouts over 6 1/3 innings.

Jose Trevino hit a pair of solo homers among his three hits for Cincinnati, which trailed 8-1 after three innings and lost for the third time in its last four games.

Colorado set the tone with two runs in the first inning against Rhett Lowder (3-7). McCarthy hit a leadoff double and scored on Carrigg's one-out double before Rumfield delivered a run-scoring single.

The Rockies tacked on four more runs in the second inning. Brett Sullivan tripled to begin the rally and scored on McCarthy's two-out single. After stealing second base, McCarthy scored on Moniak's single to center. Rumfield and Willi Castro followed with back-to-back RBI singles.

The Reds got on the board on Trevino's one-out solo homer in the third before Colorado scored two more runs in the bottom half of the inning.

With runners on the corners and one out, Julian Garcia replaced Lowder and allowed a run to score on McCarthy's groundout. Another run scored when Moniak followed with an RBI single.

Lowder yielded eight runs on 11 hits over 2 1/3 innings. He issued zero walks with two strikeouts.

Trevino homered again with one out in the fifth inning before the Rockies extended their lead with two runs in the sixth. After Carrigg drew a two-out walk, Rumfield hit his 13th homer of the season to put Colorado ahead 10-2.

Cincinnati, which had won its last seven meetings against the Rockies at Coors Field, scored a run in the seventh after Juan Mejia replaced Sugano with a runner at second and one out.

With runners on the corners and two outs, Nathaniel Lowe lined a pinch-hit single into center field to score Noelvi Marte from third.
