DENVER -- Mark Trumbo homered for the fourth straight
game, and the Arizona Diamondbacks averted a sweep by
beating Colorado 5-3 on Sunday. Wade Miley pitched eight
strong innings to extend his mastery over the Rockies. He
also had a career-best three hits, including an RBI
single and benefited from a defence that turned five
double plays as the Diamondbacks won for just the second
time in nine games this season. Miley improved to 7-0
with a 2.52 ERA in 10 career games (nine starts) against
the Rockies, matching the longest winning streak against
Colorado to start a career. The winning pitcher in
Arizonas only other victory this season, Miley (2-1)
allowed two runs and seven hits. Addison Reed gave up a
leadoff single to Carlos Gonzalez in the ninth and
Gonzalez stole second and went to third on catcher Miguel
Monteros throwing error. Troy Tulowitzki walked to put
runners on the corners. But Reed induced Wilin Rosario to
ground into a run-scoring double play and then got Nolan
Arenado to fly out to left for his second save in as many
chances. Trumbo, who walked in his first two plate
appearances, connected off Brett Anderson (0-2) for his
fifth home run of the season, a two-run shot in the fifth
that sailed into the left field bleachers and stretched
Arizonas lead to 5-0. Anderson went six innings and
allowed five runs and 10 hits. Colorado got on the
scoreboard with sacrifice flies by Drew Stubbs in the
fifth and Arenado in the sixth. A rare error by Arenado,
last seasons Gold Glove winner at third base, opened the
door to a pair of unearned runs for the Diamondbacks in
the third inning. Paul Goldschmidts hard grounder kicked
off his glove, allowing A.J. Pollock and Aaron Hill, who
were aboard with singles, to score. Chris Owings doubled
and scored on Mileys fourth-inning single. The new replay
rule figured in a reversed call in the first inning.
First base ump Mike Muchlinski called Colorado leadoff
batter Charlie Blackmon out, but the replay showed
Blackmon beat first baseman Goldschmidts flip to Miley,
covering the bag, getting his hand on the base with a
headfirst slide just ahead of Miley stepping on the bag.
NOTES: The five double plays tied an Arizona club record.
... Brett Myers (April 23, 2003-April 11, 2009) and John
Smoltz (May 6, 1993-Aug. 11, 1996) also had seven-game
winning streaks against the Rockies to start their
careers. ... Rockies 1B Justin Morneau had a designated
day off on Sunday. ... The Diamondbacks have a day off
before opening a three-game set at San Francisco on
Tuesday. RHP Trevor Cahill (0-2) is set to go for the
Diamondbacks against the Giants RHP Tim Hudson (1-0). ...
The Rockies open an interleague series Monday against the
Chicago White Sox with RHP Jordan Lyles (1-0) facing
Chicagos RHP Felipe Paulino (0-0). ... Total time for the
replay review, initiated by Rockies manager Walt Weiss,
was 2 minutes, 14 seconds. ... Trumbo has five home runs
and 13 RBIs in six career games at Coors Field.

here.TORONTO – Fighting rising adversity and stalled
growth, the Leafs will get a little help on the back-end
in the coming days. Mark Fraser is ready to return from a
left knee injury and hopes to play against the Devils,
his former team, on Friday. The 27-year-old has been
sidelined for all but two games this season with a grade-
2 MCL tear. "I think I can say today was my best day
yet," said Fraser, following an hour-plus practice on
Wednesday morning. "There really wasnt any concerns today
in practice. I think thats a pretty good green light
indication for myself." Randy Carlyle wasnt ready to say
if Fraser would immediately rejoin the lineup, but did at
least concede to the looming possibility of change on a
defence thats had trouble this season. Guardedness from
the coach aside, Fraser figures to find a place upon his
return from injury. He was among the teams top-6
defenders when the season began in Montreal – he played
with Paul Ranger that night – and offers the kind of
meat-and-potatoes defensive game his team has lacked
early this season. Where he fits and who exits the lineup
in the interim is more the question and one Carlyle and
the coaching staff have surely been pondering. "We have
decisions to make," Carlyle said, revealing little in the
way of plans. The odd man out when the season opened on
Oct. 1, Morgan Rielly played a season-low 14 minutes in
Vancouver on Saturday. The 19-year-old has had the
predictable ups and downs of a rookie defender, averaging
nearly 18 minutes alongside Cody Franson in the slot
Fraser occupied last season. Like Rielly, Jake Gardiner
and Paul Ranger have also been inconsistent options to
date. Theyve offered limited patches of good on a third
pairing, but nothing sustainable. Their troubles with the
puck and in the defensive zone have been an obvious
concern. Much like last season, the Leafs have struggled
to find consistency beyond their top pair of Dion Phaneuf
and Carl Gunnarsson. Carlyle has typically employed
Franson and Rielly against second-tier offensive options
(often subbing the rookie with Phaneuf), but theyve
proven uneven in the role, both players more refined
offensively than defensively. Carlyle found success
teaming the 6-foot-4 Fraser with the 6-foot-5 Franson
last season; though the pair had difficulty at times with
greater competition as the year wore on. Because of
Riellys inexperience and the inconsistency of Gardiner
and Ranger, this may be the best option for the Leafs at
the moment – with any one of the aforementioned three
exiting the lineup initially, likely on a rotating basis.
Ultimately, Carlyle will have to determine where Fraser
fits best in helping to stabilize the defence. "Youre
going to make the decision that you feel is best for your
hockey club, whats going to give you the best chance to
win," said Carlyle. Frasers return, needed as it is,
highlights the instability of a Toronto defence that
received no external upgrades in the
offseason.dddddddddddd Leaf management had limited
options via free agency and ultimately stood pat on the
trade market, adding only Ranger from the Marlies. It was
and remains a hope for the club that Gardiner rounds into
playoff form, that Ranger continues to improve after a
four-year NHL absence and that Rielly continues to show
growth. The results remain inconclusive to this point.
Fraser exuded a workmanlike effort in snatching a spot
with the Leafs last season; he led the defence in both
blocked shots and hits. Though the pain and discomfort in
his left knee have subsided, he will be required to wear
a brace upon returning from long-term injured reserve,
one that hell likely keep for the remainder of the season
as a precaution. "Finding some sort of comfort in it," he
said of the adjustment. "It just feels like a very
restrictive piece of equipment that seldom stays in the
same spot so its just getting beyond that. Like anything
it just takes some getting used to." More constrictive
than the brace is the medical tape he must wear,
stretching from the thigh to below the knee. The
protective equipment, he said, wont affect his skating
stride nor does it restrict him from any typical
movements. Though he figures to help a club that has had
difficulty defending – 37 shots against per game – his
addition is just one small piece to a group that has yet
to play anywhere near its best hockey (10-5-0). In what
was likely their worst performance of the season on
Saturday, the Leafs allowed 40-plus shots for the third
straight game, shut out for the first time all year in a
4-0 loss to the Canucks. "I think we need physical," said
Carlyle, asked if Frasers physical presence was needed.
"I think we need puck-moving. I think we need to quit the
turnovers. I think weve got to get back to more a
workman-like game versus the cute game I think weve been
trying to play." Theyll be challenged to do so without
two of their top centres. Tyler Bozak (hamstring) is out
for the foreseeable future (Nov. 21, his earliest return
date) and Dave Bolland (ankle) has hit injured reserve
for a period that remains unknown and figures to be
longer rather than shorter. Hoping to plug the holes and
survive in the meantime, the club signed 34-year-old
Jerred Smithson for the remainder of the season, also
bumping James van Riemsdyk to centre. Previously with the
Marlies on a pro tryout, Smithson spent last season split
between Florida and Edmonton. "We look at our team to
play a tighter brand of hockey and to continue to show
some growth," said Carlyle. "We think the growth has
stalled for our team. We dont think that weve played to
the template that weve created and some of the things
that were struggling with are things that we have to
overcome or were not going to give ourselves the best
chance for success."
