Toglia followed with a single. Two batters later, Goodman scored Diaz on a sacrifice fly to give the Rockies a 2-0 advantage.

Vaughn led off the bottom of the fourth with a solo homer, his 10th of the year, to cut Chicago's deficit in half.

With Freeland still pitching in the bottom of the seventh, Corey Julks and Lenyn Sosa led with consecutive singles, before Danny Mendick advanced the runners with a sacrifice bunt. Two batters later, Tommy Pham walked to load the bases. Freeland was then replaced by Victor Vodnik, who issued a game-tying walk to Vaughn.
