MIAMI (AP) -- Jason Hammel pitched a season-high 6 2-3 innings and bunted home a run to give the Colorado Rockies' sputtering offense a boost and help them beat the Florida Marlins 3-1 Saturday night.
The NL West-leading Rockies snapped Florida's four-game winning streak and improved to 8-2 on the road.
Hammel (2-1) allowed seven hits and one run. Three relievers combined to pitch 2 1-3 perfect innings, and Huston Street pitched the ninth for his seventh save in as many chances.
Colorado's bullpen has allowed just two runs in the past 22 1-3 innings
