PHOENIX (AP) \u2014 Corbin Burnes struck out a season-high 10 batters over six masterful innings, Eugenio Su\u00e1rez and Geraldo Perdomo each had three RBIs and the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the struggling Colorado Rockies 8-0 on Friday night.<\/p>\n
The Rockies fell to 7-37 for the worst start in the big leagues through 44 games since 1901. They’ve lost four straight and 12 of 13.<\/p>\n
Interim manager Warren Schaeffer is 0-4 since taking over for Bud Black, who was fired on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Burnes (3-1) navigated his outing without much trouble, giving up two hits and walking three. It’s his second straight scoreless outing after skipping a turn in the rotation due to shoulder inflammation.<\/p>\n
Rockies lefty Carson Palmquist (0-1) made his big-league debut, giving up five runs on six hits and a walk over four innings. The 24-year-old is the team’s No. 8 prospect, according to MLB.com.<\/p>\n
The D-backs scored two runs in the second, one in the third and two more in the fourth to pull away for a 5-0 lead. Su\u00e1rez added a two-run single in the seventh for a 7-0 advantage.<\/p>\n
Gabriel Moreno reached base four times with two doubles, a single and a walk. Josh Naylor, Randal Grichuk and Corbin Carroll all had two hits.<\/p>\n
The D-backs won back-to-back games for the first time since April 30-May 1.<\/p>\n
