Ahmed's RBI single in ninth lifts D'backs past Rockies 7-6

Published Jun. 24, 2016 2:42 a.m. ET

DENVER (AP) Nick Ahmed had a two-out, RBI single in the ninth inning and the Arizona Diamondbacks recovered after blowing a late lead to beat the Colorado Rockies 7-6 on Thursday night.

Down 6-3, the Rockies rallied to tie it on D.J. LeMahieu's RBI bunt single in the eighth. Daniel Hudson was charged with three runs, but Brad Ziegler (2-2) allowed LeMahieu's single, ending his streak of 43 consecutive successful save attempts dating back to May 29, 2015, a club record and the seventh longest ever.

Arizona starter Zack Greinke was in line for his eighth win in eight starts but took a no decision.
