LOS ANGELES, Aug. 20 (UPI) -- Ian Stewart, Brad Hawpe and Matt Holliday all chipped in homers Tuesday in the Colorado Rockies' 8-3 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Stewart's homer produced three runs and he finished with a career-high five RBI. Hawpe, who hit a two-run shot, also scored three times. Holliday hit a solo homer and finished the night 4-for-5.

Ubaldo Jimenez (9-11) lasted only five innings and allowed three runs on eight hits but got the win. He struck out seven.

Jeff Kent finished 3-for-5 with two doubles and an RBI for Los Angeles.

Hiroki Kuroda (7-9), who started and yielded four runs on six hits over six innings, suffered the loss as the Dodgers fell one game back of NL West-leading Arizona.
