Shots of the matchWawrinka showed he is not just all about power as he lured Cilic into the net before showing a delicious touch to lob him. Wawrinka showed that hes not all about power with this delicate lob... But when it does come to pure power, Wawrinka can produce it when it most matters - especially on the backhand side. But the Swiss star does possess an awful lot of power on that missile of a backhand... Expert analysisGreg Rusedski: Hes back in business. He played great tonight. Cilic played him into form. Hes very confident going up against Marin because Marin isnt willing to come forward which allowed him to hit many groundstrokes and get a feeling for the ball. By the end of it, he was playing lights out tennis. Its not what Andy Murray wanted to see, an in-form Wawrinka on Friday.Peter Fleming: This match seemed to turn his game around. He was hitting the ball well and hes not going to be an easy guy to put out.

The Wawrinka backhand was at its blistering best in the second set Quite predictably, it headed into a tiebreak, and it was the third seed who started forcing the errors from Cilics racket, which was enough to take the set.Just when it looked as though Wawrinka had the momentum, Cilic struck in the opening game of the second set. Wawrinka was happy to get his first victory in London after defeating Cilic Despite being hampered by a knee injury recently, the 31-year-old is determined to finish his season on a high, and responded with some fearsome hitting of his own to level in the fourth game.It was enough to send the tight contest into another tiebreaker. And Wawrinka struck a huge blow with an unstoppable 98mph forehand for the mini-break which he never relinquished to set up a mouth-watering clash against Murray.

DENVER -- The new kids got things rolling and the familiar face with the bushy beard brought the win home. Charlie Blackmon lined a two-out single in the ninth inning off reliever Sergio Romo, helping the Colorado Rockies beat San Francisco 10-9 on Monday and stop the Giants six-game win streak on a long day at Coors Field. Earlier in the day, the Giants broke away from a tie and beat Colorado 4-2 in a game that resumed after it was suspended May 22 in the sixth inning because of rain. In the regularly scheduled game, Rockies reliever LaTroy Hawkins (3-2) blew a save in the top of the ninth. In the bottom half, Mike McKenry led off with a single up the middle off Romo (5-4). McKenry scored from third when Blackmons hit fell near the right-field line. All this after the newest members of the team, call-ups Ben Paulsen and Rafael Ynoa, arrived from Triple-A Colorado Springs ready to contribute. Paulsen hit a two-run homer as a pinch hitter and Ynoa had the first three hits of his career. "The hits were coming from a lot of guys you may not expect it from," said Blackmon, an All-Star this season known for his unkempt beard. "Its really positive to see that kind of contribution from not the usual suspects." Hunter Pence hit a three-run homer for the Giants. Pence also came up big hours earlier, when his tiebreaking double in the eighth led the Giants in the resumption. Hawkins struggled in the ninth, giving up an RBI single to Buster Posey and another to Pablo Sandoval that tied the game. It set the stage for Blackmon, who collected the Rockies seventh walk-off hit of the season. He said he was looking for a changeup from Romo since he saw nothing but fastballs in the earlier game. "The pitch was way down," said Blackmon, who was 0 for 5 before his final at bat. "I looked up and didnt know where it was going to be. Then I realized it wasnt going to be an out -- and I ran to first. " A bitter loss for the Giants to stomach in the middle of the NL West chase. "Hard-fought game, tough game," manager Bruce Bochy said. "Thats one that you see here in this ballpark." Trailing 7-2 in the sixth, the Rockies scored four runs off starter TTim Hudson.dddddddddddd They tied the game the next inning on Josh Rutledges run-scoring single off reliever Jean Machi. Paulsen gave the Rockies a 9-7 lead with a two-run homer. Brandon Crawford broke out of a slump with a pair of RBI singles and a run-scoring double. Pence extended his hitting streak to 14 games with his homer in the first. Hudson gave up six runs and remained winless at Coors Field. Hudson acknowledged the last time he was in town that a victory in this hitter friendly-park remains one of the items on his baseball bucket list. "This is a crazy place to play sometimes," Hudson said. "Regardless of what the scores are throughout the game you have to keep pushing, you have to keep trying to (put) runs on the board. Because crazy things happen here." TRAINERS ROOM Giants: OF Michael Morse experienced soreness on his left side in batting practice before the first game. Hes considered day to day.
