SAN DIEGO -- Jedd Gyorkos late offence and heads-up defensive play provided a
big boost to the San Diego Padres on Saturday night.

Gyorko led off the eighth inning with a go-ahead homer, then helped trick a base
runner into a game-ending double play to help the Padres to a 2-1 win over the
Colorado Rockies. The rookies home run off Matt Belisle (5-6) came right after
the Rockies tied the game at 1 in the eighth inning on a San Diego error.
Gyorkos 17th homer just barely cleared the right field wall as it hit the top
padding and avoided the leaping attempt of right fielder Michael Cuddyer. "I
faced him a number of at-bats against him throughout the year," Gyorko said.
"Hes got good command. I know he likes to try get ahead with his fastball away
and I just sat on it and put a good swing on it. I wasnt sure if it was going to
get out or not. It was just enough to sneak over." Gyorko had been hitless in
five at-bats against Belisle this season with two strikeouts. Cuddyer led off
the ninth with a single against Huston Street. With one out and rookie Nolan
Arenado batting, Cuddyer took off for second. Arenado lifted a fly ball to
centre field. But rather than retreating to first, Cuddyer slid as Gyorko deked
him into thinking there was a play at second base. When Cuddyer realized Arenado
hit a fly ball, he ran back to first. But Alexi Amarista made the catch and
easily doubled Cuddyer off first to end the game. "A great play," San Diego
right fielder Will Venable said. "Middle infielders try to do that all the time,
sometimes it works better than others. Fortunately, for us, it worked out
great." Gyorko leads all major league rookies in homers and extra-base hits (41)
and is third in RBIs with 44. Luke Gregerson (6-7) got the win and Street picked
up his 28th save by getting the final three outs. The Rockies spoiled a strong
outing by Padres starter Tyson Ross, who allowed just three hits in seven
innings. "I think there have been times, where I thought he had maybe thrown
better," Padres manager Bud Black said. "Its a great sign to do what he did
(Saturday) when on given nights I thought he throw the ball overall better."
Charlie Blackmon led off the Colorado eighth against Gregerson with a single and
was forced out by pinch hitter Ryan Wheeler. Charlie Culberson came in to pinch
run and stole second with two outs. DJ LeMahieu then hit a sharp single to left
field. Chris Denorfia fired a one-bounce throw to catcher Nick Hundley, who went
to make the tag on Culberson who was going head first. Hundley applied the tag
in time, but Culbersons slide ripped the glove off Hundley and the ball came
out. Amarista drove in San Diegos first run with a bases-loaded, infield single
in the first inning. Colorados Todd Helton hit his 585th double in the seventh
inning, tying him for 16th place on the all-time list with Rafael Palmeiro. The
Rockies had just two base runners reach second base against Ross. The closest
Colorado came to scoring on Ross came after Helton doubled to lead off the
seventh. With one out, Yorvit Torrealba hit a low line drive to right field that
Venable went for and caught. Venable then doubled Helton off second. "(Ross) has
gotten better," Colorados Troy Tulowitzki said. "He kept us off balance. He did
a good job and as the game went on, he gained some confidence because he was
having success." Colorados Tyler Chatwood allowed one run and five hits in his
six innings. Denorfia and Gyorko had consecutive one-out singles in the San
Diego first. After Jesus Guzman drew a walk with two outs, Amarista drove in a
run when his ground ball deflected off the Chatwoods glove for an infield
single. Chatwood was making his second start since coming off the DL last
Sunday. In his first start back, the right-hander lasted just two innings
against Cincinnati when he took a line drive off his right thumb and had to
leave the game. Notes: Rockies CF Dexter Fowler was held out of the starting
lineup after he aggravated a right knee sprain that recently caused him to miss
six games. ... The Eastlake Little League team from Chula Vista that won the
U.S. championship two weeks ago was honoured in a pregame ceremony. ... Colorado
