    LaTroy Hawkins took an up-and-coming Dexter Fowler under his wing when the speedy outfielder was just a teenager in the Colorado Rockies system.

    Fowler paid him back Sunday by sending Hawkins' errant slider into the right-field bleachers in his return to Coors Field.

    Nothing personal. Only business.

    Fowler hit a two-run homer off the Colorado closer with two outs in the ninth inning, helping the Chicago Cubs rally for a 6-5 win on a blustery afternoon.
