________________________________________________
Lopez didn't get a decision in the Rockies' 2-1 loss to the Brewers last Saturday, though he gave up just one hit -- Corey Hart's homer that barely cleared the wall in left -- over seven innings. Lopez established the fastball early, then kept hitters off-balance by mixing it with his cutter and slider.
Bacsik pitched one of his best games of the season on Monday, yielding two runs (one earned) on seven hits over 5 2/3 innings against the Astros. It helped that he threw a lot of first-pitch strikes.
