DENVER - (AP) Pinch-hitter Chris Young hit a tiebreaking, three-run double in the eighth inning, helping the Arizona Diamondbacks rally for an 11-7 win over the Colorado Rockies on Saturday night.

Stephen Drew finished a single shy of the cycle and Mark Reynolds hit a solo homer as the Diamondbacks snapped a three-game skid.

Trailing 4-3 heading into the eighth, Arizona scored six times to open up a big lead -- and then had to hang on.

The Diamondbacks tied the game at 4 when Gerardo Parra laced a one-out double into the left-center gap that scored Miguel Montero.

After Chad Tracy and Felipe Lopez walked, Young cleared the bases with a deep double off reliever Joel Peralta (0-2).
