DENVER—Ryan McMahon hit a go-ahead, two-run homer in the first inning, and the Colorado Rockies sent Ranger Suárez to his first loss of the season in a 5–2 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday.

Colorado, last in the NL West at 18-34, took two of three games and ended a streak of 15 straight winning or tied series for the major league-best Phillies (38–16), Philadelphia’s longest streak since 1983–1984.
