Cody Bellinger had three hits, including a homer, Max Muncy also homered, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Colorado Rockies 12-6 in Denver on Sunday night.
Justin Turner and Corey Seager had two hits apiece to help L.A. sweep the weekend series from Colorado. The two home runs give the Dodgers 24 on the season, and they have hit at least one in all 10 games.
Joe Kelly (1-1) got the win in relief, and Bellinger scored four times. He has an 11-game hitting streak going back to last season.
Nolan Arenado went 3-for-4 with two RBIs and a walk, and Charlie Blackmon had two hits for the Rockies.
The Dodgers scored twice in the second inning to take the lead. Bellinger led off with a double and moved to third on a flyout. Austin Barnes walked with two outs, and Julio Urias' single to right scored Bellinger and got under Blackmon's glove for an error, allowing Barnes to score from first.
Los Angeles opened it up in the third against Chad Bettis (0-2). Seager doubled, Bellinger was intentionally walked and David Freese hit an RBI double to right.
Enrique Hernandez followed with a two-run double inside the third-base bag, and Barnes singled to make it 6-0. Yency Almonte, recalled earlier Sunday, relieved Bettis and got the last out of the inning.
Colorado got three back in the bottom of the inning when Blackmon led off with a triple, Trevor Story singled and Arenado tripled off the wall in right. Arenado scored when Hernandez -- with one out -- caught a flip from Seager on Ian Desmond's potential double-play grounder but didn't throw to first, as the second baseman thought the forceout ended the inning.
The Dodgers scored an unearned run in the fourth when Blackmon dropped Bellinger's fly ball to the warning track.
Los Angeles added two more in the fifth on a sacrifice fly and a wild pitch, and then Muncy's two-run homer in the sixth gave L.A. an 11-3 lead.
Colorado scored twice in the sixth.
Bellinger's solo blast to the second deck in right field was his seventh of the season.
