DENVER _ Jesus Aguilar can't leave town fast enough as far as the Colorado Rockies are concerned.
The day after beating them with a ninth-inning, pinch-hit home run, the Milwaukee Brewers slugger went deep twice more Sunday to highlight an 8-4 victory over the Rockies at Coors Field.
Aguilar, getting a start at first base with the Rockies pitching left-hander Joel Freeland, drove in three runs and reached base three times as the Brewers won their third consecutive series and first on their three-city West Coast swing.
Sunday also marked the return of Brewers right-hander Chase Anderson, who was reinstated from the disabled list. He had missed seven weeks with a strained left oblique but picked up his seventh victory of the season with a workmanlike five-inning start.
The Brewers were holding onto a slim 3-1 lead in the seventh when Aguilar put the game out of reach.
The at-bat prior to Aguilar's was key, as Travis Shaw hustled down the line on a grounder and appeared to just beat D.J. LeMahieu's throw to first. He was called out by umpire Nic Lentz, but the call was overturned after the Brewers challenged, bringing Aguilar to the plate.
Having already homered to tie the game at 1 in the second, he turned around a 96-mph Tyler Chatwood fastball for a 441-foot shot to left to give the Brewers valuable breathing room at 5-1.
Aguilar saw six sliders in his at-bat against Rockies all-star closer Greg Holland on Saturday night, capping it with his two-out, two-run homer 449 feet to straightaway center.
The two-homer game was the second of Aguilar's career and first since July 7, when he slugged a pair to beat the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium.
Eric Sogard added an RBI groundout in the eighth and Keon Broxton a two-RBI single in the ninth to cap the scoring for the Brewers.
Colorado scored three times in the final two innings, leaving manager Craig Counsell to turn to closer Corey Knebel to record the final out and his 26th save of the season.
It wasn't the smoothest outing for Anderson, who'd thrown 67 pitches in his second and final minor-league rehab start at Class AAA Colorado Springs on Aug. 13.
He labored through both the first and third innings, walking three batters and hitting two more. But Anderson managed to hold the Rockies to just a single run, on a sacrifice fly to left in the first by Mark Reynolds.
The game remained deadlocked until the fifth, when Ryan Braun's bases-loaded sacrifice fly to deep center scored Orlando Arcia to put the Brewers ahead to stay at 2-1.
Anderson breezed through the bottom of the frame on just seven pitches and was sitting at 73 for the game when he was pulled with two outs in the sixth and his spot due up in the order.
With Broxton and Arcia both on base after drawing walks, Counsell called on Neil Walker.
Rockies manager Bud Black went to another left-hander in Chris Rusin, and the switch-hitter responded by singling to right to plate Broxton and increase Milwaukee's lead to 3-1.
Anderson (7-2) exited having allowed two hits and three walks to go along with four strikeouts and the two hit batters.
