DENVER — Troy Tulowitzki hit for the cycle and had a career-high seven RBIs to help Colorado beat Chicago, 11-5, last night.

"I don't know if I'll ever have a game like this ever in my career," Tulowitzki said. "Not too many people can say they had a cycle in the big leagues."

Tulowitzki, who had a grand slam denied in the first video review ever at Coors Field, led off the seventh a triple shy of the franchise's fifth cycle and first in nine years. He laced a 3-2 pitch down the left-field line and slid headfirst into the bag before third baseman Jake Fox could corral the throw from left.

Tulowitzki hit his 21st homer in the first, singled in the second and doubled in the fourth in his first three at-bats. He added a two-run single in the eighth to finish with five hits.

It was the sixth cycle in the majors this season.

Todd Helton had two singles to extend his hitting streak to 15 games and Jorge De La Rosa (10-8) struck out 11 for the Rockies, who took three of the four games in the wraparound series with the Cubs.

CARDINALS 4, REDS 1:

Kyle Lohse (5-7) allowed four hits in six innings and host St. Louis beat Cincinnati. Colby Rasmus drew a bases-loaded walk in the fifth inning off Kip Wells (0-3) for the go-ahead run, and Matt Holliday, Khalil Greene and Brendan Ryan hit balls off the wall in a two-run sixth for St. Louis.

MARLINS 8, ASTROS 6:

Rick VandenHurk (2-1) allowed two runs in five innings and five Florida players had at least one RBI as the Marlins beat visiting Houston. John Baker had two RBIs, and NL batting leader Hanley Ramirez had two singles and an RBI to help chase starter Brian Moehler (7-8) after five innings.

DIAMONDBACKS 7, METS 4:

Doug Davis (7-10) had a two-run double and won his third straight decision, Trent Oeltjen hit his third homer in four major league games and host Arizona beat New York. Arizona catcher Miguel Montero had three doubles for the Diamondbacks.

DODGERS 4, GIANTS 2:

Matt Kemp hit a three-run double, and Hiroki Kuroda (5-5) allowed one run in 6 1/3 innings as Los Angeles beat host San Francisco. The Giants fell to 6 1/2 games behind the first-place Dodgers in the NL West.
