Rockies 7, Dodgers 3:
Carlos Gonzalez and Troy Tulowitzki delivered two-run doubles as Colorado completed a seven-game road trip by winning its series with Los Angeles.

Michael Cuddyer also drove in a pair while Josh Rutledge had three hits and an RBI for Colorado, which had five doubles among its 12 hits. Josh Outman (1-0) pitched two scoreless innings in relief of struggling Rockies starter Juan Nicasio, who allowed three runs and struck out six in four innings.

Adrian Gonzalez hit a two-run homer for the Dodgers, who alternated wins and losses during their six-game homestand. Josh Beckett (0-4) yielded five runs (four earned) and struck out six in four innings to fall to 2-7 in 13 starts with the Dodgers.

Tulowitzki, who missed the previous two games because of a shoulder injury, hit his double into the left-center gap with the bases loaded in the first inning and Cuddyer followed with a sacrifice fly. Gonzalez's homer - a towering shot over the short wall in right field on a 2-2 slider - made it 3-2 in the bottom half.

It appeared Adrian Gonzalez gave the Dodgers the lead in the third inning with his second home run, but Rockies center fielder Dexter Fowler reached over the wall to take three runs away. Carlos Gonzalez ripped a two-out double down the right-field line in the fourth to put Colorado in front 5-3.

GAME NOTEBOOK: The Rockies traded INF Chris Nelson to the New York Yankees on Tuesday for a player to be named and cash. Nelson was designated for assignment Sunday when Colorado called up 3B Nolan Arenado. ... Nicasio is 3-0, but has not pitched past the fifth inning in his last five starts and is averaging 19 pitches per frame this season. ... Beckett has recorded a strikeout in every major league game he has pitched (327) - postseason included, the second-longest streak to start a career since 1900. Dwight Gooden recorded a strikeout in his first 356 games from 1984-97.
