Arizona's nine hits in a row—all with two outs—came when scoring eight runs in the fifth inning against the Colorado Rockies while completing a three-game series sweep with a 13-6 win .

“This three-game set here, I couldn’t be more proud of the way the guys went out there and had a really good elite offensive approach. They were unpredictable.
