Pierce Johnson - Notches sixth saveJohnson picked up the save in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Pirates. He allowed a hit and a walk while striking out two over one inning scoreless inning.
ImpactJohnson worked around a walk and a two-out double to close out a one-run victory and earn his sixth save this season. The 32-year-old Johnson is now a perfect 6-for-6 in save opportunities despite a subpar 4.40 ERA and 1.74 WHIP. Johnson has been the Rockies' primary closer, while Daniel Bard works lower-leverage situations. Even if Johnson can hold off Bard in the ninth inning, it's hard to put much faith in any reliever pitching in Coors Field.

Antonio Senzatela - Left start with forearm tightnessSenzatela left Wednesday's start against the Pirates with right forearm tightness, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports. He allows three runs in 2 2/3 innings before departi...
ImpactSenzatela's final offering was a pitch to Andrew McCutchen that McCutchen hit out of the park. The right-hander will be considered day-to-day for now, but there's a strong chance that he'll need at least a minimum stint on the 15-day injured list.
