DENVER (AP) Raimel Tapia hit a solo home run with one out in the ninth inning and Colorado Rockies rallied past the Philadelphia Phillies 5-4 on Friday night.
Trevor Story, C.J. Cron and Garrett Hampson also homered for Colorado, which has won three straight.
The Rockies trailed by two runs twice before Tapia ended it with a shot over the scoreboard in right off closer Hector Neris (1-2). It was his third of the season.
Mychal Givens (1-1) pitched the top of the ninth to earn the win.
Philadelphia led 2-0 but solo homers by Story -- his first of the season -- and Cron in the fourth tied it.
The Phillies made it 4-2 in the seventh on Andrew McCutchens sacrifice fly and a homer by Rhys Hoskins, his fourth. The Rockies got within a run in the bottom half and Hampson tied it with a solo homer in the eighth.
Vince Velasquez started for Philadelphia with left-hander Matt Moore on the COVID-19 list. It was Velasquezs first start of the season and fourth appearance, and he left after allowing two runs on five hits in four innings.
Colorado starter German Marquez gave up two runs on six hits and struck out eight in six innings.
TRAINERS ROOM

Bullpen coach Dave Lundquist and hitting coach Joe Dillon rejoined the team in Colorado. Both had been on the COVID-19 list.

GREGORIUS RETURNS
Shortstop Didi Gregorius was back in the Phillies lineup after missing three games with inflammation in his right elbow. Gregorius said his kidney disorder, discovered in 2011, delayed his return.
When I have inflammation it doesnt go away. Thats one of the things Ive been dealing with, he said before the game. If I get hit by a pitch it stays swollen for like a week or two, so thats why I try not to get hit.
UP NEXT
Philadelphia RHP Aaron Nola (1-1, 2.19 ERA) will face Colorado RHP Antonio Senzatela (1-3, 5.40) on Saturday in the second of the three-game weekend series.
