Mickey Moniak and Kyle Karros each homered among their two hits, and the Colorado Rockies came from behind to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 9-6 in Denver on Sunday.
Edouard Julien had three hits and three RBIs, Troy Johnston added two hits and Antonio Senzatela (1-0) pitched two innings of relief for Colorado.
Max Muncy had three hits, Ryan Ward had two hits in his major league debut and Hyeseong Kim and Alex Freeland had two hits apiece for Los Angeles, which has lost consecutive games for the first time this season. The teams will conclude their four-game set Monday.
Shohei Ohtani had two hits to extend his on-base streak to 51 games. He is third in franchise history behind Shawn Green's 53-game streak in 2000 and Duke Snider, who did it in 58 consecutive games in 1954.
The Dodgers nearly rallied in the ninth off Victor Vodnik. Will Smith had an RBI single and Dalton Rushing's bases-loaded groundout scored another run. Ward had a chance with two on and two outs, but Johnston made a diving catch of his blooper to right.
Colorado went ahead for good in the seventh off reliever Blake Treinen (1-1) on Moniak's two-run homer to right-center and an RBI single by Tyler Freeman.
Julien delivered a two-run single in the eighth to stretch the lead to 8-4, and Moniak drove in another run with a groundout.
Freeland's single and Ohtani's RBI double in the third gave Los Angeles a 2-0 lead, and Ward drove in another with a single to right in the fourth off Colorado starter Michael Lorenzen.
That was all Lorenzen gave up in his five innings of work. The Rockies got a run back in the bottom of the fourth when TJ Rumfield hit an RBI single off Roki Sasaki, and they added two runs in the fifth.
Karros led off with his first homer of the season. Jake McCarthy legged out a double and scored on Julien's single. Sasaki left after a two-out walk to Freeman.
Los Angeles retook the lead in the sixth. Alex Call and Ward singled with one out, Call advanced to third on a fielder's choice and he scored on Freeland's line single to right.
