Jake McGee (2-3) pitched the ninth for the win. Adam Ottavino pitched the 10th for his fourth save in eight chances.

Blackmon gave the Rockies a 2-0 lead with his homer leading off the fourth and an RBI single with two outs in the fifth. His home run came after San Diego's Edwin Jackson retired the first nine batters.

Nick Hundley hit a leadoff double in the fifth and scored on Blackmon's single. Blackmon got caught in a rundown to end the inning.

Rockies right-hander Chad Bettis was cruising with a one-hit shutout before the Padres tied it at 2 in the sixth. Travis Jankowski doubled to left-center and scored on Wil Myers' triple that rolled to the fence in right-center. Yangervis Solarte brought in Myers with a sacrifice fly.

Jackson allowed two runs and five hits in six innings, struck out four and walked one.

Bettis went seven, allowing two runs and four hits, with five strikeouts and one walk.
