Rockies' Matt Holliday: Goes yard against Cardinals

Holliday hit a pinch-hit solo home run Saturday against the Cardinals.

Holliday took John Gant deep for his first home run since joining the Rockies on Thursday. He earned a start on his first day with the club but has since appeared only as a pinch hitter. It remains to be seen both how big his role will be with the team and how effective he'll be when given an opportunity.
