Dodgers 11, Rockies 5: A.J. Ellis hit a three-run homer during a six-run fifth inning as Los Angeles completed a sweep of the three-game series.

Bobby Abreu added a three-run double in the big inning and rookie Scott Van Slyke hit a two-run double in the eighth for the Dodgers, who improved to 23-11 overall and 15-3 at home - both tops in the major leagues.

Colorado took an early 3-0 lead before Los Angeles cut the deficit to one. Marco Scutaro gave the Rockies a two-run advantage with an RBI single in the fourth, but the Dodgers broke open the game an inning later.

Abreu, who entered the game in the fourth as a defensive replacement for Matt Kemp, put Los Angeles ahead with his double off Colorado starter Alex White (0-2). Matt Reynolds came on and recorded an out before walking James Loney and serving up Ellis' third blast of the season.

Kemp exited after three innings with a hamstring injury. However, he did extend his consecutive games streak of 399, the longest current run in the majors.

The rally made a winner of a shaky Ted Lilly (5-0), who surrendered five runs - four earned - six hits and three walks in 6 1/3 frames. The veteran left-hander, who improved to 10-2 lifetime against Colorado, allowed a total of six runs over his first five starts this season.

White was tagged for six runs in 4 1/3 innings.

Carlos Gonzalez plated Scutaro twice with a pair of groundouts for the Rockies, who have lost eight of nine.
