DENVER (AP) — Robbie Ray threw six efficient innings after regrouping from a fall while covering first base, Willy Adames hit a two-run double as part of a four-run opening frame and the beat the Colorado Rockies 6-4 on Saturday night.
Ray (8-6) allowed three runs while striking out four.
It was a wobbly opening frame for Ray, who fell to the ground after taking a flip from Rafael Devers and stepping on first base for the second out. Ray continued after being checked out.
But the left-hander allowed four straight baserunners, including a three-run homer from Cole Carrigg. Ray settled in and kept the Rockies at bay before turning the game over to the bullpen. Caleb Kilian gave up a two-out RBI single to pinch-hitter TJ Rumfield in the ninth. He struck out Troy Johnston to end the game and earn save No. 8.
Newly-named All Star Luis Arraez had three hits, including an RBI single, while Bryce Eldridge added a solo homer and a run-scoring double.
Sean Sullivan (0-3) allowed six runs over 5 2/3 innings. He was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque to start for , who went on the injured list with back spasms.
There were a pair of delays Saturday, starting with weather that caused the scheduled first pitch to be pushed back by 46 minutes. The other took place before the fifth inning when home-plate umpire Scott Barry left the game and Manny Gonzalez needed time to assemble his gear. Barry appeared to take a foul ball near the lower part of his mask in the third.
Rockies catcher had two hits and two walks on the day he was named an All Star for a second straight season.

The Rockies will throw Tanner Gordon (0-2, 6.69) Sunday. The Giants will throw righty Tyler Mahle (1-8, 5.67).
