LOS ANGELES - Aaron Sele pitched seven shutout innings, Jeff Kent and Rafael Furcal had three hits each, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Colorado Rockies 7-1 Wednesday night for their seventh straight victory.
The win enabled the Dodgers to sweep a six-game homestand for the first time since May 1994, when they accomplished the feat against Houston and San Diego.
They won three from the Angels and three from the Rockies this time, giving them 11 wins in their last 12 games at Dodger Stadium. They outscored the Angels 31-7 and the Rockies 21-3.
The Dodgers scored all their runs after two were out in this game - raising their record to 15-3 since a five-game losing streak dropped them a season-high five games below .500. They're now a season-high seven games over .500 and trail the NL West-leading Arizona Diamondbacks by a half-game.
Sele (3-0) allowed three hits while walking one and striking out five before being relieved by Jonathan Broxton to start the eighth.
Sele, a 35-year-old right-hander who signed a minor league contract during the offseason, has allowed five runs in 26 2-3 innings since being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas.
The Dodgers took a 2-0 lead off Aaron Cook (5-4) in the third on consecutive two-out singles by Kenny Lofton, Nomar Garciaparra, J.D. Drew and Kent.
Kent hit another two-out, RBIs single in the fifth to drive in Furcal and make it 3-0.
Jose Cruz Jr. hit a run-scoring single and rookie Russell Martin followed with a three-run double off Jose Mesa in the seventh. Three of the runs were charged to Tom Martin.
Cook allowed nine hits and three runs in six innings while walking two and striking out four. The loss snapped a personal four-game winning streak, and was just the second for Cook in his last 12 road decisions.
The Rockies scored an unearned off Broxton in the eighth when Clint Barmes reached on an error by shortstop Furcal and later scored on a single by Cory Sullivan.
Barmes singled and Danny Ardoin walked to start the Colorado third, but Sele pitched out of trouble by retiring the next three batters - two on strikeouts.
That was the only inning the Rockies sent more than three batters to the plate until the seventh, when Matt Holliday hit a one-out single before Sele retired the next two batters.
