On a day the Colorado Rockies set their rotation, ace Jeff Francis didn’t hold anything back. Francis, the opening day starters, pitched five innings, allowed two earned runs and five hits with two walks while striking out five against the division-rival Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday. The D-backs scored nine runs after Francis left the game and won 11-8.
