Hellickson (6-5) held the Rockies to a run on three hits in seven innings, striking out six in his first appearance against Colorado.

A.J. Pollock led off the sixth with a home run. Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado’s first of two errors prolonged the inning before Peralta sent a hard grounder down the right field line to drive in Welington Castillo and Aaron Hill.

Yasmany Tomas continued to have success against the Rockies, lacing a two-run double in the seventh off reliever Scott Oberg. Tomas is 12-for-30 (.400 average) with three doubles and 10 runs batted in in seven games against Colorado this season.

Hill capped off the four-run seventh with a two-run double. Peralta, Pollock and Paul Goldschmidt had two hits each.

Rockies starter Chris Rusin shut out the Diamondbacks for five innings and drove in the Rockies’ run with a two-out single in the fifth. Rusin (3-3) allowed three runs – one earned – and six hits. He struck out six with two walks.

Troy Tulowitzki’s ninth-inning single gave him a 15-game hitting streak, and he’s reached base safely in 30 consecutive games.

Rockies rumpus

The Rockies recalled outfielder Drew Stubbs from Triple-A Albuquerque before the game, sending utility player Rafael Ynoa to the minors. Stubbs, in his seventh major league season, struck out 31 times in 51 at-bats before Colorado sent him down in May. Stubbs was used as a pinch hitter in the eighth inning and flied out to deep right field. … Rockies second baseman D.J. LeMahieu, batting .296 in 75 games, got Thursday off for rest. “He’s grinding, and he had a tough series in Oakland,” Rockies’ manager Walt Weiss said. “He’s one of our guys that goes to post every day, so every once in a while I have to take care of him, let him catch his breath.” … Rockies pitcher Kyle Kendrick (3-10, 6.07 ERA) will make his 10th start on the road this season when he faces the Diamondbacks Friday. He’s allowed five home runs to the Diamondbacks this season and has never beaten them in five career starts.
