Mattson pitched a four-hitter for the victory; Chris Kindgren held ... [Rapids] to four hits, but a double steal on the first pitch off reliever Lee Stephenson in the seventh inning set up the final scoring play. A lead-off home run by Jeff Erikson* in the fifth inning gave the Rails a brief 2-1 lead.
