DENVER (AP) -- Jamie Moyer handcuffed the Arizona Diamondbacks at the plate and in the field, pitching neatly into the seventh and driving in two runs with an infield single in Colorado's 6-1 win Wednesday night.

Moyer legged out a base hit in the fourth inning when he dribbled a 2-2 fastball in between lefty Patrick Corbin and first baseman Paul Goldschmidt, who fielded the ball and futilely lunged at the 49-year-old pitcher lumbering down the line.

That scored Jordan Pacheco from third, and he was quickly followed by Dexter Fowler, scoring all the way from second base on the 85-foot single as he beat the throw home, which bounced past catcher Henry Blanco, giving the Rockies a 5-0 lead.

The two RBIs tied Moyer's career high set against Pittsburgh in June 2004 when he was with the Seattle Mariners.
