DENVER -- The Colorado Rockies didnt let two more injuries interfere with their best homestand in nearly three months. Elvis Dumervil Jersey . Jordan Pacheco homered among his three hits as the banged-up Rockies slowed down Giancarlo Stanton and beat the Miami Marlins 3-2 Sunday. Colorado, employing mostly young players, finished the homestand 5-2, their best since going 6-1 in May 28-June 3. "They want to win," outfielder Dexter Fowler said. "Even though theyre young theyre learning and going out and playing hard." The young players have been forced into service due to a rash of injuries that have hit the club, including two more Sunday. Rockies outfielder Eric Young Jr. left after one inning with a strain in his left ribcage and shortstop Josh Rutledge exited in the fifth with tightness in his left thigh. Before the game, Colorado put outfielder Michael Cuddyer back on the 15-day disabled list after he aggravated a right oblique strain in Saturdays loss. "Theres nothing you can do about other people getting hurt," pitcher Adam Ottavino said. "When you come into a tough spot all you can do is just keep playing. Thats all were trying to do." Young said after the game the injury wasnt serious and he would miss one or two games. Colorado plays the Mets in New York on Monday. The Rockies overcame some close calls as well. Emilio Bonifacio was called safe at first on a grounder to shortstop to lead off the game. Rockies manager Jim Tracy argued that first baseman Tyler Colvin kept his foot on the bag. In the eighth, Colvin was called out on a close play at home, bringing Tracy out again. "There were a few questionable calls today, one of which cost a run on the very first play of the game," Tracy said. "I dont have a comment beyond that." Stanton went homerless for the first time in seven games at Coors Field. On Saturday night, he became the first player in big league history to homer in his first six games in a particular park, the Marlins said in citing the Elias Sports Bureau. Stanton drew two intentional walks and went 0 for 2 in the series finale. "They had a smart strategy," Miami manager Ozzie Guillen said. "A couple of times they didnt pitch to him and did a great job on him." John Buck homered for the Marlins. Ottavino (5-1) tossed three scoreless innings for the win and Rafael Betancourt pitched the ninth for his 23rd save. Josh Johnson (7-10) lost his third consecutive start. He gave up three runs and seven hits in seven innings. "You have to give these young kids a lot of credit," Tracy said. "I dont know how many we had on the field today who didnt have any idea who Josh Johnson was let alone take an at-bat against him." Colorado looked overmatched early by Johnson but broke through in the fourth. Rutledge reached on an infield hit -- Colorados first of the game -- and scored on Dexter Fowlers double. Two outs later Pacheco homered to left to give the Rockies a 3-2 lead. It was his second of the year and first since May 17, a span of 279 at-bats. "Hes pitching well, but we got some good pitches to hit and did something with them," Fowler said. Rockies starter Drew Pomeranz allowed two runs on three hits and four walks in four innings. The key player in the trade that sent Ubaldo Jimenez to Cleveland last season, Pomeranz is 1-7 and has failed to pitch more than four innings in each of his last four starts. The Marlins got to him early, scoring an unearned run in the first. Bonifacio, who reached on Rutledges throwing error, scored on Carlos Lees groundout. Pomeranz intentionally walked Stanton to load the bases before Buck grounded out to end the threat. "It made sense," Stanton said. "There was an open base. Donnie Murphy has been out for a while. Why not give it a chance?" Buck led off the fourth with his ninth home run to make it 2-0. Ottavino shut down the Marlins on one hit in three innings. He worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the fifth and retired the final eight batters he faced. The Marlins stranded nine runners. "We had a chance to open this game up," Guillen said. "We left a lot of guys out there and couldnt get the game to the bullpen." NOTES: Fowler hit safely in five of the six games he played on the homestand. ... The Marlins activated Bonifacio and Murphy from the 15-day DL. ... Pacheco has six three-hit games this season. ... Buck has a six-game hitting streak at Coors Field, dating back to June 13, 2010. Game Von Miller Jersey . The NBAs reigning Sixth Man of the Year and the defending NBA champions who are trying to make sure they get back to the playoffs made it clear Monday that the partnership is over after an underwhelming 50-game stint. Willis McGahee Jersey . Following the qualification round of the mens sprint, Briton Jason Kenny is ranked in the number one spot with a 9.713 second time trial result. http://www.nflbroncosgearshop.com/champ-bailey-jersey/ . became the fifth National Lacrosse League player to reach 1,000 points, it was point No. Black Von Miller Jersey . Peliwo is off to his third junior Grand Slam boys final of the season thanks to a 5-7, 7-6 (3), 6-3 victory over Mitchell Kreuger of the U.S. in the semfinals. Meanwhile, Bouchard beat Anett Kontaveit of Estonia 7-6 (7-3), 6-4 in their girls semifinal to advance. Womens Champ Bailey Jersey . The second-seeded Russian broke Wozniacki twice in each set, taking control from the beginning through her booming serve and groundstrokes. "It was a great way to finish the season by winning the title in Sofia, and the doubles in Istanbul," Petrova said after a first win in the past five matches against Wozniacki. WASHINGTON -- Waking up early during the off-season back home in Florida, Gio Gonzalez and his personal trainer would consult a workout program tucked away in a folder labeled "Project 20." As in 20 victories, a milestone number for a pitcher, even in this age of newfangled statistics. Gonzalez became the majors first 20-game winner of 2012, and the first pitcher for a Washington baseball team with 200 strikeouts since Walter Johnson in 1916, taking a shutout into the sixth inning Saturday to help the Nationals close in on their first NL East title by beating the Milwaukee Brewers 10-4. "In a way, you kind of smile about it, because we finally reached our goal," Gonzalez said, standing in front of a locker sporting seven $20 bills presumably donated by teammates to mark the occasion, "and now its time to change it up and continue to try and get better goals and higher goals." Ryan Zimmerman and Ian Desmond each hit a three-run homer off former Nationals pitcher Livan Hernandez in the fourth inning, and Washington stopped Milwaukees six-game winning streak. The Brewers fell to 2 1/2 games behind St. Louis for an NL wild-card berth. "I dont feel like we have to win every single game the rest of the season -- I dont feel that -- but I tell you what: We better win most of them or almost all of them," Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said. Owners of baseballs best record, the Nationals already are assured of post-season play, and Gonzalez (20-8, 2.84 ERA) is a big reason. "It doesnt feel like a 20th win for myself. It feels like a 20th win for the team," the lefty said. "This is a childhood dream, but at the same time, to do it with a team thats in first place makes it that much better." Other than a bit of a pratfall -- Gonzalez caught one of his cleats in the dirt, tumbled off the mound and landed face-first in the grass after a pitch -- he was pretty dominant Saturday. He went seven innings, allowing two unearned runs and three hits. He only walked one, and his five strikeouts raised his total to 201. The Nationals traded for him in the off-season, shipping four prospects to the Oakland Athletics, then signing Gonzalez to a $42 million, five-year deal. "Hes always had the stuff," Zimmerman said. With one out in the seventh, Gonzalez lost his footing while throwing a pitch that sailed to the backstop on the flyy. Black Eric Decker Jersey. Gonzalez stayed down on his belly for a few seconds, his arms and legs splayed, before getting up. Eventually, a team trainer, manager Davey Johnson and some smiling teammates went out to check on Gonzalez. "Oh, it was hilarious. I asked him ... Are you hurt? And he said No, my feelings are hurt a little bit. So we got a kick out of it," said Nationals first baseman Adam LaRoche, who tied a career high with his 32nd homer. Joked Desmond: "Im just glad he didnt mess up his hair." When Gonzalez stepped back on the mound, he tipped his cap, and the sellout crowd of 40,493 roared. They gave a standing ovation when he walked to the dugout two outs later, his afternoon done. Gonzalez later got a bit hug from Nationals pitching coach Steve McCatty. Zimmerman (who hit his 23rd homer), Desmond (24th) and LaRoche are other significant parts of the first major league team in the nations capital to head to the post-season in 79 years. Washingtons victory lowered its magic number for clinching a division championship to six over Atlanta. Milwaukee starter Wily Peralta (2-1) lasted only 2 2-3 innings, giving up three runs and five hits, along with four walks and a wild pitch. "He really couldnt get comfortable," Roenicke said. "The mounds a little bit different, and he found that out in the first inning." Washingtons 19-year-old centre fielder, Bryce Harper was in the middle of several key plays Saturday. He made a running, back-to-the-infield catch on a deep fly by Rickie Weeks to end the top of the third. Moments later, Harper drove a pitch barely above the dirt into left for an RBI double to make it 1-0. Then, apparently picked off second because he strayed too far off the bag, Harper bolted for third and wound up with a stolen base, before scoring on LaRoches double. "Typical Harper move, trying to make something happen," Johnson said. "He probably used that a lot in high school." NOTES: The Brewers will start RHP Yovani Gallardo (16-8) on Sunday, while the Nationals will use RHP Chien-Ming Wang (2-3) as a spot starter to keep their rotation on regular rest after a doubleheader Wednesday. ... RF Aoki threw out Morse at the plate for the last out of the second. Morse tried to score on Suzukis fly ball. ... LaRoche also hit 32 homers in 2006, while playing for Atlanta. 20:38ET 22-09-12 ' ' '
