LOS ANGELES -- Jordan Lyles got through seven innings on a night when mound opponent Josh Beckett displayed his old All-Star form for eight. Troy Tulowitzki and the rest of the Colorado Rockies did the rest against the Dodgers overworked bullpen. Charlie Blackmon hit an RBI single in the 11th inning and the Rockies got home runs from Tulowitzki and Corey Dickerson to beat Los Angeles 5-4 on Friday. Carlos Gonzalez also had an RBI during the decisive rally. "We look for Tulo and CarGo to lead us. If they dont go anywhere, we dont go anywhere," Lyles said. "So for us to be good we need them to be good. They are proven players and theyre going to give their best effort every day of the week. Talent-wise, it doesnt get much better that that combo." Adam Ottavino took over in the eighth for Lyles as a steady drizzle sent many in the crowd of 44,866 for cover. Ottavino retired the side in order before Boone Logan struck out his first two batters in the ninth -- including Matt Kemp, who was ejected by umpire Angel Hernandez for arguing a called third strike. It was Kemps seventh career ejection and the Dodgers first this season. The drizzle had turned into a downpour by the 10th. Brandon Barnes pinch-hit for reliever Rex Brothers (2-2) with one out in the 11th and doubled against Jamey Wright (1-1). Left-hander J.P. Howell entered to face the lefty-swinging Blackmon, who came in leading the majors with a .410 average. The leadoff hitter grounded a 2-2 pitch up the middle to drive in the go-ahead run after going hitless in his four previous at-bats against Beckett. Nolan Arenado followed with a single that extended his career-best hitting streak to 15 games. The Rockies added another run when first baseman Adrian Gonzalez threw home on a grounder in front of the bag by Carlos Gonzalez and was too late to get Blackmon. Justin Morneau capped the rally with an RBI single against Brandon League. Brothers pitched a hitless inning and LaTroy Hawkins got three outs for his seventh save after giving up a two-run homer to Adrian Gonzalez. Kemp would have been the next batter had he not been tossed. Yasiel Puig also went deep and had an RBI single for the defending NL West champions, who are 1-5 in extra-inning games. Beckett allowed two runs and four hits with six strikeouts and no walks, after pitching five scoreless innings in each of his previous two starts. The right-hander, whose first four outings have resulted in no-decisions, hasnt won since beating the Rockies on Sept. 30, 2012, at Los Angeles. "There arent very many easy outs in that lineup, but I got some easier outs on some changeups. That was really the key to keeping them off balance," Beckett said. "Theyre a very good hitting team. Most of their guys usually feel pretty good about themselves, and they should." Beckett was 0-5 with a 5.19 ERA in eight starts last season before sitting out the final five months because of a groin strain and a subsequent bout with thoracic outlet syndrome, a nerve condition that required surgery in July. "I think this was a step in the right direction for me, personally. I wanted to show myself that I could do some things I havent done in a while, like pitching innings," Beckett said. "I mean, I havent been up and down six times in like 400 days. I dont know exactly how many. Thats just a guess." Lyles allowed two runs and six hits, striking out four and walking one. Puig, the second batter Lyles faced, hit the first pitch to centre field for his third home run. Ten of Puigs first 22 big league homers have come on the first pitch. "I dont mind when guys swing early, especially since Im a guy that does a decent job of getting guys to hit the ball on the ground," Lyles said. "I tried to make a good pitch down and away. If I threw a ball, I was fine with it. But I didnt get another chance. I left it over the plate and he put a good swing on it. Hes a strong guy who can put it into the seats." Tulowitzki drove Becketts second pitch of the second inning deep into the left-field pavilion for his fifth of the season. Two batters later, Dickerson hit a first-pitch homer to left-centre. Beckett then retired 17 of his next 18 batters. NOTES: Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw (back) threw 56 pitches over five innings in a rehab start for Class-A Rancho Cucamonga against visiting Lancaster, allowing a run and two hits with six strikeouts and a walk. The run came on a leadoff homer in the fifth. David de Gea Jersey .com) - Virginia is for loving Latrell Scott.

Montreal has won three of four overall in the series and the Habs are 7-4-1 with a tie in 13 all-time meetings versus the Wild. Prior to Saturdays game, the Canadiens will lift another jersey to the rafters as Guy Lapointe will have his No. 5 sweater retired. Lapointe, a Hall of Fame defenseman who helped Montreal win six Stanley Cup titles in the 1970s, now serves as coordinator of amateur scouting for the Wild. Lapointes jersey will become the 18th retired sweater and the second No. 5, which was previously retired for Bernie Boom Boom Geoffrion. Hell also join ex-teammates Larry Robinson and Serge Savard, who along with Lapointe formed the clubs Big Three on defense during its dynastic run in the 70s. Robinson and Savard, who already have their numbers retired by the Habs, will be in attendance for the pre-game ceremony at the Bell Centre. The Canadiens hope to build off a recent road win when they kick off a four-game homestand tonight. Montreal, which halted a three-game slide with Wednesdays shootout victory in Buffalo, is 4-2-0 as the host this season. The Habs notched a 2-1 decision over the lowly Sabres, as P.A. Parenteau scored the deciding goal of the shootout. Montreal had been outscored by an 11-2 margin in its previous two games -- home losses versus Calgary and Chicago -- before beating Buffalo. Parenteau also lit the lamp in regulation and Dustin Tokarski made 31 saves for Montreal. Tokarski moved to 2-1-0 with a 2.01 GAA in four games (three starts) this season, while No. 1 backstop Carey Price is 7-3-1 with a 2.94 GAA. Price is expected to start Saturday. He is 3-2-0 with a 2.79 GAA in five career games against Minnesota. Michael Bournival bruised his shoulder in Thursdays game and the forward is sideelined indefinitely.dddddddddddd Defenseman Mike Weaver, who sat out against the Sabres with an illness, could return tonight. After failing their first test without Zach Parise, the Wild hope to get along better without the star forward. Minnesota, which has lost two straight on the heels of a three-game winning streak, lost Parise indefinitely to a concussion suffered in Tuesdays home test versus Pittsburgh. The Wild lost a 4-1 decision to the Penguins and then were handed a 3-0 setback without Parise in Thursdays 3-0 defeat in Ottawa. Parise will miss at least tonights test and Tuesdays tilt in New Jersey, as head coach Mike Yeo ruled out the winger for Minnesotas current three-game road trip. The 30-year-old Minnesota native is leading the Wild with 10 points this season on four goals and six assists. Fellow forward Matt Cooke (lower body) and defenseman Jared Spurgeon (shoulder) also missed the game in Ottawa and both are expected to sit out tonight as well. Thursdays shutout loss marked the first time the Wild were blanked this season. Still, Minnesota was active offensively and outshot the Senators 35-17 in a losing effort. Craig Anderson turned aside all 35 attempts to earn the shutout for Ottawa. I do know that there are some guys that can give us more, Yeo said. I feel like there are some guys that are kind of doing the minimum. Niklas Backstrom allowed all three goals on 17 shots in Minnesotas second straight loss. Backstrom fell to 1-2-0 this season and the Wild are expected to return to Darcy Kuemper in net tonight. Kuemper is 6-3-0 with a 1.77 goals against average this season and his only career appearance versus the Canadiens came in a relief role on Nov. 19 of last season. The Wild lost that game in Montreal by a 6-2 score, giving the Canadiens wins in two straight and three of the last four meetings between the clubs at the Bell Centre.
