Todd Helton went 3-for-5 with a home run, three RBI and three runs scored on Monday, helping the Rockies to a 10-7 win over the Reds in Cincinnati. He took Sam LeCure deep for a two-run bomb in the fifth inning. Helton has struggled since the All-Star break, but did manage to up his second-half average from .239 to .263 this evening. The Rockies will be facing Reds lefty Dontrelle Willis on Tuesday, whom Helton is just 3-for-13 lifetime against.
