Cron, the Rockies pounded out 16 hits in their 12-4 victory over Arizona at Coors Field. Colorado snapped an ugly seven-game home losing streak in which it had been outscored 69-24.Lefty Austin Gomber pitched in with six solid innings, allowing one run on just three hits. The only blemish on Gomber’s day was a 463-foot solo home run by Evan Longoria in the second inning that gave the Diamondbacks a short-lived 1-0 lead.Cron hit 3 for 4 with four RBIs, finishing a triple short of the cycle. He led off the second with a double off right-hander Ryne Nelson and scored on Elias Diaz’s single. Cron hit a screaming, line-drive, three-run homer to left off Nelson in the third and added an RBI single off Peter Solomon in the sixth.Related ArticlesColorado Rockies | Rockies’ Noah Davis goes on injured lis...Warriors-Lakers series preview: It’s LeBron vs. Steph for the fifth time
