<p>DENVER (AP) — Willson Contreras homered drove in two runs to lead the St. Louis Cardinals to a 6-2 victory over the MLB-worst Colorado Rockies on Monday night.</p>
<p>The Cardinals ended a three-game losing streak after being swept by Arizona while the Rockies marked their 100th game with their 76th loss.</p>
<p>Brendan Donovan and Nolan Arenado hit doubles and joined Jordan Walker with two hits apiece in a 15-hit night. Masyn Winn and Contreras had three hits each.</p>
<p>The Rockies took a 2-0 lead in the third, but Contreras hit a solo homer and Winn doubled in Arenado to tie the game in the fourth. Contreras gave St. Louis the lead for good with an RBI single in the fifth.</p>
<p>The Cardinals extended their lead on a single by Pedro Pagés and Donovan's sacrifice fly in the sixth.</p>
<p>Michael McGreevy (2-1), recalled on Monday to make the start, went seven innings, giving up two runs on seven hits and no walks with one strikeout.</p>
<p>Austin Gomber (0-4) gave up five runs on 11 hits. He struck out six.</p>
<p>Mickey Moniak, Brenton Doyle and Adael Amador had two hits each for the Rockies.</p>
<p>Key moment</p>
<p>Contreras gave the Cardinals their first run with his homer, but it was his single to left in the fifth that brought in the go-ahead run.</p>
<p>Key stat</p>
<p>The Rockies have to go 18-44 the rest of the season to avoid tying the White Sox's modern-era record of 121 losses set last year.</p>
