August 8, 2007

DENVER (AP) -- Colorado Rockies pitcher Jason Hirsh broke his right leg -- and kept on pitching against the Milwaukee Brewers.

X-rays revealed the fracture Wednesday, a day after Milwaukee's J.J. Hardy lined a ball off Hirsh's leg during the first inning of Colorado's 11-4 win.

Hirsh allowed three runs -- two earned -- and three hits in six innings, throwing 87 pitches and improving his record to 5-7.
