Bettis, Rockies hand mistake-prone Cubs their 2nd loss, 6-1 (Yahoo Sports)

Chad Bettis pitched six scoreless innings, Ben Paulsen had an RBI single and threw out a runner at the plate, and the Colorado Rockies took advantage of the Chicago Cubs' shaky defense for a 6-1 victory on Friday. The Cubs, who had won eight of nine in their best start in 47 years, managed only four singles and made four errors. Bettis (2-0) was sharp in first career start against the Cubs, and he got some help with several fine plays by his defense.
