Jesus Luzardo pitched strongly into the seventh, striking out 11 and Trea Turner had two hits with the game-winning RBI in the Philadelphia Phillies' 2-1 win over the Colorado Rockies in Denver on Saturday night.
Jhoan Duran retired the side in order in the ninth for his third save to secure Philadelphia's fourth consecutive win.
Luzardo (1-1) allowed just one run on five hits over 6 2/3 innings to bounce back from a rough first start.
Brett Sullivan had two hits and the lone RBI for Colorado, which is 1-4 in one-run games. Chase Dollander (1-1) struck out six in 4 1/3 innings of relief work for the Rockies but took the loss.
Philadelphia put up seven runs in Friday's first inning and struck early again on Saturday night. Colorado's Brennan Bernardino walked Turner to begin the game, and Kyle Schwarber blooped a double down the left-field line to make it 1-0.
Bernardino retired the next two batters before walking Bryson Stott, ending his night. Stott stole second but Jimmy Herget fanned Adolis Garcia to hold the Phillies to one run.
The Rockies got even in the third inning. Troy Johnston led off with a single, went to second on Luzardo's wild pitch and took third on a deep flyout by Kyle Karros. Sullivan followed with an RBI single to right.
Philadelphia went back in front in the fifth inning. Brandon Marsh led off with a single, and Dollander walked J.T. Realmuto. Justin Crawford hit into a fielder's choice, leaving runners at the corners with one out.
Turner laced a double to left to drive in Marsh as the go-ahead run.
The Phillies chased Dollander after Crawford's one-out single in the seventh and put two runners on with two outs but didn't cash in.
The Rockies had chances to tie it in the seventh and eighth innings. They had two runners on in the seventh but reliever Jose Alvarado fanned Karros to get out of the jam. After Sullivan led off the eighth with a single, pinch runner Jake McCarthy went to second on Brad Keller's wild pitch, but Keller retired the next three batters to strand McCarthy at third.
