MILWAUKEE (AP) – Ben Sheets threw seven sharp innings and Prince Fielder drove in two runs to lead the Milwaukee Brewers over the Colorado Rockies 7-1 Wednesday night.

Tony Graffanino also had two RBIs for Milwaukee, which won for the fourth time in five games to move within four games of Cincinnati in the NL wild-card race.

Sheets (4-5) struck out seven, and allowed six hits and one run, bouncing back from one of his worst starts of the season. Houston got to him for seven runs and 10 hits in seven innings to beat the Brewers 7-3 last Thursday.

Byung-Hyun Kim (7-9) doubled in a run and pitched five innings for Colorado, which lost its fifth straight game. They have scored only nine runs during the skid.

Kim (7-9), who hasn’t won on the road since May 28, a span of seven starts, walked four and hit two batters with pitches. He gave up six runs and four hits.

Milwaukee pushed across four runs in the fifth to take a 6-1 lead. After Gabe Gross was intentionally walked to load the bases, Graffanino delivered a two-run single for a 4-1 lead. Fielder added his second run-scoring single before Laynce Nix was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded.

Jeff Cirillo hit his third homer of the season and first since May 31 in the sixth to make it 7-1.

Colorado got its only run in the fifth. Kazuo Matsui, making his Colorado debut after he was called up from Triple-A Colorado Springs on Tuesday, led off with a double and scored on a one-out double by Kim.
