MILWAUKEE (AP) — Michael Toglia hit a three-run home run, Ryan Feltner struck out six over six innings of one-run ball and the Colorado Rockies won consecutive games for the first time since early August with a 3-2 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday night.

Feltner (2-10) held Milwaukee to a pair of hits while walking three for his first victory since April 10. The only blemish came in the third when Jake Bauers walked and scored on a base hit by Joey Ortiz.

Prior to Friday, he’d taken a no decision in five straight starts despite allowing more than three runs just once during that stretch.

Brewers starter Frankie Montas (6-10) did not give up a hit through five innings. He’d allowed just one baserunner by way of a two-out walk to Toglia in the fourth before Ezequiel Tovar’s one-out double in the sixth.

Ryan McMahon followed with a walk and after Brenton Doyle grounded out, Toglia sent Montas’ next offering — a 94 mph sinker — to center for his team-leading 23rd homer of the season.

Montas struck out 10 batters for the first time since joining the Brewers in a deadline deal with the Reds.

Aaron Ashby provided three scoreless innings of relief, striking out four. He’s yet to allow a run in four relief appearances since being recalled from Triple-A Nashville.

The Brewers cut the lead to one with an unearned run in the seventh then brought the potential go-ahead run to the plate in the ninth against Tyler Kinley, who escaped the jam and earned his 10th save when pinch-runner Brewer Hicklen was thrown out trying to take third on Rhys Hoskins’ flyout to center.

TRAINER’S ROOM

Rockies: RHP Kyle Freeland (blister) will take his usual spot in the rotation Sunday against the Brewers, manager Bud Black said. The Rockies also expect RHP Cal Quantrill (right triceps inflammation) to return to the rotation in the coming days while RHP Victor Vodnik (right bicep inflammation) was set to make a minor league rehab start Friday for Double-A Hartford.

UP NEXT

RHP Tobias Myers (6-5, 3.00 ERA) starts for Milwaukee while LHP Ty Blach (3-7, 6.65) gets the ball for Colorado on Saturday.
