Chicago: Rockies closer Greg Holland walked the bases loaded in the ninth inning before escaping as Colorado held off the Chicago Cubs 5-3 in Major League Baseball on Friday for their season-high sixth win in a row. After three straight one-out walks, Holland retired Ben Zobrist on a short flyball and struck out Jason Heyward for his major league-best 23rd save. The Rockies posted their National League-leading 40th win this season and have their longest winning streak since 2014. Dansby Swanson, meanwhile, turned a normal grounder up the middle into a hustle double, then dashed home on a single by pinch-hitter Rio Ruiz in the ninth inning to lift Atlanta 3-2 over New York.
