Pirates send Rockies to 8th straight loss, 6-2

DENVER (AP) — Garrett Jones homered twice and the Pittsburgh Pirates overcame an early injury to starting pitcher Ross Ohlendorf to beat Colorado 6-2 Wednesday, the Rockies' eighth straight loss.



Ohlendorf left after being hit on the right side of his face by Troy Tulowitzki's line drive in the first inning. A bruised Ohlendorf got checked at a hospital and was back at Coors Field before the game ended.



The Pirates are 13-38 on the road. They had not won consecutive road games since mid-May at Chicago.



Colorado last lost eight straight in June 2008. Carlos Gonzalez homered for the Rockies.



Sean Gallagher (1-0), acquired July 7 from San Diego, pitched three hitless innings. Five more relievers finished it out for the Pirates.



Jones drove in three runs with his third career two-homer game and second this season.
