BALTIMORE -- For a short time in the seventh inning, it appeared David Dahl just might end up scoring the decisive run for Colorado in his major league debut.Alas, the Baltimore Orioles quickly pulled even and ended up winning 3-2 in 10 innings Monday, spoiling Dahls long awaited arrival and ending the Rockies four-game winning streak.Dahl, the 10th overall pick in the 2012 draft, went 1 for 4 with two strikeouts. The 22-year-old was summoned from Triple-A Albuquerque early Monday and traveled across the country from California to Camden Yards.His first hit in the big leagues was a single up the middle in the seventh. He advanced on a wild pitch and scored to give the Rockies a 2-1 lead.I was chasing that high pitch a little bit tonight, kind of just real anxious and nervous, Dahl said. Fortunately, I was able to get a hit and get to second base. Mark Reynolds got a hit and I scored a run to help the team.Batting sixth and playing left field, the rookie went through a variety of emotions.I was very anxious, very excited and it was a great atmosphere, Dahl said. Im glad to get that first game out of the way. Unfortunately, we didnt come away with a win.The Rockies made three errors, which resulted in two unearned runs by the AL East-leading Orioles.In the 10th, Baltimores Adam Jones reached on a one-out single off the third-base bag and took third on a single by Jonathan Schoop. Manny Machado followed with a comebacker to Jordan Lyles, who fumbled the ball before throwing home. Catcher Nick Hundley caught the ball near the ground and lost the handle while attempting to tag the sliding Jones.Lyles (2-3) was charged with an error on the play.I made a good pitch to Machado to get a ground ball, Lyles said. I caught it and looked what to do next and it fell out of my glove. It was just a dumb play. ... Thats a tough way to lose a game.Chaz Roe (1-0) worked the 10th for the victory.Nolan Arenado homered for the Rockies, who mustered only six hits.One of the most surprising aspects of the game occurred in the field, where Arenado made two errors at third base. The three-time Gold Glove Award winner botched a grounder in the first inning and threw wildly to first base in the second, a mistake that led to an unearned run.Arenado came into the game with just one error in 96 games this season.Seeking his 100th career victory, Colorado lefty Jorge De La Rosa got locked in a duel with Yovani Gallardo and failed to get a decision. Coming off a miserable outing in which he gave up a career-high nine runs to Tampa Bay, De La Rosa allowed two runs, one earned, and four hits in 6 1/3 innings.He entered the seventh with a 2-1 lead but was lifted after hitting a batter and giving up a double. Jones greeted Adam Ottavino with a run-scoring groundout.Gallardo gave up two runs and five hits in 6 2/3 innings.After Jones singled in a second-inning run, Arenado led off the fourth by sending a 1-0 pitch into the left-field seats. It was his 26th homer of the season and second in two games.UP NEXTRockies: Chad Bettis (8-6, 5.31 ERA) makes his 21st start of the season Tuesday night in the second game of the series. The Rockies are 7-1 in his last eight starts.Orioles: RHP Chris Tillman (14-2, 3.18) seeks his major league-leading 15th victory.

We witnessed that when Zack Kassian hit Edmontons Sam Gagner in the face after a missed check.RIO DE JANEIRO -- As Australia cheered two of the games best players picking off a handful of high-profile tournament titles earlier this year, Marcus Fraser could only dream about representing his homeland in the Olympic Golf Tournament.Now he is leading it.As silly as that might sound to the average golf fan who might not even know his name, it is just as mind-boggling to the veteran golfer from Corowa in New South Wales who shot 8-under-par 63 on Thursday at the Olympic Golf Course in the sports return to the Games after 112 years.Even just a few weeks ago, Fraser could not have given much hope to being part of the Olympic Games.Im just really embracing the fact that Im here and enjoying it, said Fraser, 38, who competes mostly on the European Tour, where he has three victories, including one earlier this year in Malaysia.That, of course, was overshadowed by the victories posted by countrymen Adam Scott and Jason Day, the No. 1-ranked player in the world who has won three times, including the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Prior to that victory in March, Scott had won the Honda Classic and WGC-Cadillac Invitational.Those two major champions were locks to represent Australia in the Olympics. The only way anyone else could forge their way into the field in Rio was to get inside the top 15 in the world rankings. At No. 90, that was not likely for Fraser.But Scott had long suggested he was not interested in the Olympics, and he withdrew. A potential replacement, Marc Leishman, also backed out, citing concerns over the Zika virus. Day had long expressed his enthusiasm to play in the Olympics, but he also pulled out.Still, Fraser would not be making the trip to Brazil were it not for another Aussie, Matt Jones, deciding not to play. With Scott Hend also qualifying, Fraser ended up being the sixth-best Aussie in the world, but one of the two competing for Olympic gold.Im glad they decided not to come, Fraser said. I really wanted to be here and I think its exciting. But at the same time, IIve really got to respect the decision that those guys made not to be here.dddddddddddd They know its a special event, but for other reasons, they decided not to.After a birdie-bogey start, Fraser rattled off four birdies in a row to shoot 31 on the first nine, then added four more on the back for a 32 and a score of 63, giving him a 3-shot lead over Open champion Henrik Stenson of Sweden and Canadas Graham DeLaet.Fraser needed just 21 putts and managed to get a good bit of his round completed before gusty winds made for some difficult scoring.I think this is probably one of the best rounds of golf Ive ever played for sure, Fraser said. I think given the circumstances, I was quite edgy and a bit jumpy on the first tee, because its such a big occasion to be here at the Olympics. To manage that and go on to play the way I did is really pleasing and a big confidence boost.It undoubtedly did not hurt Fraser that the Gil Hanse-designed Olympic Course has a bit of a sand belt look. The courses in Melbourne, where Fraser played all of his serious golf, are known for some of the qualities that are seen at the venue here, including the unique bunkering.The golf course feels like it has a lot of strategy to it, he said. They have got the variety to move tees around. They have got so many pins [locations] on the greens, and even though they are not huge greens ... they are designed so well that every hole has its own strategy for different winds.For Fraser, so far so good.Now its a matter of getting down to business after an emotional day resulted in a memorable round.When I tapped in on 18, [it] looked like it was only a 3-footer, but when it went in, I looked down there and grabbed my ball out of the hole and its something Ill never forget, Fraser said. Because its pretty special to be able to shoot that score in the first round that golf is back in the Olympics. ' ' '
