Los Angeles, CA (Sports Network) - Aaron Cook pitched eight dominant innings, and the Colorado Rockies edged the Dodgers, 2-1, to take two of three from Los Angeles, in the process winning their first road series in more than a month.

Cook (8-3) scattered six hits and fanned six, allowing one run with one walk on 118 pitches.

Jeff Baker's two-run homer in the second was all the offense needed for the Rockies, who won two straight in LA to break both an eight-game losing streak and 13-game road skid. Brian Fuentes threw a perfect ninth for his eighth save.

The Rockies hadn't won a series away from home since taking two of three in Houston from April 18-20. The series win was the first overall for the Rockies since taking two of three from the Mets in Colorado from May 23-25.

Rookie prospect Clayton Kershaw (0-1) gave up five hits and two runs over five frames, fanning five and walking four to take his first career loss in his third start. Matt Kemp's RBI infield single in the sixth was the only offense for the struggling Dodgers, who have dropped eight of 10.

Chris Iannetta legged out an infield single to lead off the second for the Rockies, and Baker brought him in with his first homer of the season, a drive into the stands just left of dead center that gave the Rockies the early 2-0 lead.

The Dodgers cut the deficit in half with some small ball in the sixth. Chin- Lung Hu reached base on an infield single, and Chan Ho Park bunted him over to second. Hu headed to third on a Juan Pierre groundout, and Kemp was able to leg out an infield single of his own as Hu crossed home.

That was all for the Dodgers' offense however. Cook and Fuentes combined to toss three scoreless frames, with a two-out single by Delwyn Young in the eighth the only blemish. Russell Martin hit a hard-line drive to center with two outs in the ninth, but it held up for Willy Taveras to make the game- ending catch.
