LOS ANGELES -- Down three runs after five innings, the Los Angeles Dodgers werent worried. They rarely are these days.Yasmani Grandal homered twice, including a grand slam in the seventh inning, to rally them past the Colorado Rockies 7-4 on Thursday night.We always believe were going to win and that belief comes because weve done it before, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said.Their 50th home victory reduced the Dodgers magic number for clinching their record fourth consecutive NL West title to four. Their division lead remained at six games after San Francisco beat San Diego 2-1.Lets get this thing over, said Grandal, who was 4 for 4. Lets clinch this and win the division.Luis Avilan (3-0) got the win in relief, pitching a scoreless seventh with one strikeout.Kenley Jansen retired the side in the ninth for his 46th save in 52 chances.Its probably the most resilient team Ive been on, Dodgers starter Brett Anderson said. Were never out of it.Rockies starter Tyler Chatwood, who came in with a 7-1 road record, pitched Colorado to a 4-2 lead before leaving after six innings. Then the Rockies bullpen imploded.Jordan Lyles gave up a ground-rule, pinch-hit double to Andre Ethier to open the seventh. Boone Logan (2-4) took over and loaded the bases on two consecutive one-out walks. He then walked Adrian Gonzalez, forcing in a run and leaving the Dodgers trailing 4-3.Grandal followed with his second career grand slam, sending a 2-2 pitch into center field and giving the Dodgers their first lead of the game, 7-4.Logan gave up four runs and one hit in one inning, walked three and struck out none.We havent seen that from Boone all season, Colorado manager Walt Weiss said.Grandal hit a solo shot in the second for the sixth homer given up by Chatwood in his last four games.Weiss and third baseman Nolan Arenado were ejected in the seventh for arguing balls and strikes. Carlos Gonzalez lined into an unassisted double play at first base, where DJ LeMahieu was doubled off to end the inning.Making his first start since Aug. 20, Anderson gave up four runs and six hits in five innings. The left-hander struck out two and walked one after coming off the disabled list with a blister on his left index finger.Its finally good not to be a full detriment to the team, Anderson said. I feel good and my body feels good. I kind of look at this as my first actual start with everything being OK.The Rockies took an early 2-0 lead on an error by right fielder Josh Reddick and Daniel Descalsos sacrifice fly.LeMahieu extended his consecutive on-base streak to 38 games with a homer in the fifth, extending Colorados lead to 4-1.TRAINERS ROOMRockies: 1B Gerardo Parra was scratched an hour before the game because of illness and was replaced by Stephen Cardullo. ... 3B coach Stu Cole, hit by a ball during batting practice on Tuesday and taken to a Denver hospital, was back on the field Friday.WHAT A PLAYChase Utley made an amazing play on Chatwoods groundout to second base in the fourth. Utley went to field the ball and it escaped his glove as he spun around. Utley somehow grabbed the ball and flipped it with his right hand and his back turned toward first base, where Adrian Gonzalez was fully stretched to make the play that ended the inning.The legacy of Chase continues to grow, Roberts said. He makes this crazy no-look pass to first base. He said, `I cant believe I missed the ball.Utley called the play pretty lucky.VISITING VINIt was Weiss turn to visit Vin Scully. The team presented the 88-year-old Hall of Fame broadcaster with the letters `LAD from the Rockies scoreboard.His intellect and recall of the game is amazing, Weiss said. I didnt even think he would know who I was, but he knew everybody, even the guys who werent in jersey.Weiss played shortstop for Oakland against the Dodgers in the 1988 World Series. He told Scully he still has nightmares when he hears the call from Game 1 in which hobbled Dodgers pinch-hitter Kirk Gibson slugged the winning home run.Vin told me Gibsons home run was the most theatrical, Weiss said, and that (Hank) Aarons home run was the biggest moment of his career.HAPPY BIRTHDAYFormer Dodgers manager Tom Lasorda celebrated his 89th birthday Friday. With 68 years in the organization, he is the longest tenured employee with Scully second in seniority at 67 years. Lasorda serves as special adviser to the chairman. He was presented with a huge cake on the field before the game and the crowd sang Happy Birthday. Lasorda and wife Jo shared a kiss before the current Dodgers greeted him.UP NEXTRockies: RHP Jon Gray (10-8, 4.42 ERA) is coming off a franchise-record 16 strikeouts in his first career complete-game shutout, an 8-0 win over San Diego. He is 2-2 with a 3.38 ERA in five career starts against the Dodgers.Dodgers: LHP Scott Kazmir (10-6, 4.59) starts for the first time since Aug. 22 after missing 28 games on the disabled list with neck inflammation. He is 4-6 with a 4.11 ERA in 13 home starts this season. Travis dArnaud Jersey .

LANDOVER, Md. -- Kirk Cousins wondered early in the Washington Redskins game against the Green Bay Packers if the wind would make it difficult.Instead, Cousins gripped the ball tighter, ripped it into the air and threw for 375 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Redskins to a 42-24 victory Sunday night, Washingtons sixth victory in eight games.Handing the Packers (4-6) a potentially season-crushing fourth consecutive loss, Cousins outdueled two-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers and got the Redskins (6-3-1) rolling into a Thanksgiving showdown against the NFC East-leading Dallas Cowboys.Lights out, said DeSean Jackson, who had a 17-yard touchdown catch . QB rating 145? So we need him to play like that a lot more. I think if we can get our guy back there playing like that, pretty much unstoppable.With Cousins carving up Green Bays porous pass defense and Robert Kelley running for 137 yards and three touchdowns, Washington put up 517 yards didnt wilt like it did in a playoff loss to the Packers. We Want Dallas chants filled FedEx Field in the final minutes of the game that only became a blowout late, but this was a well-rounded performance that the Redskins wish they couldve put together in January.We certainly had a sour taste in our mouths walking away from the game last season, said Cousins, who was 21 of 30 and also had TD passes to Jamison Crowder and Pierre Garcon . When you watch the film, we felt like there were plays there to be made that didnt get made. I think tonight you saw what we felt we were capable of doing last January and just didnt get it done.While the Packers allowed 30 or more points for the fifth time in six games -- all losses -- Rodgers and the offense couldnt keep up. He was 26 of 41 for 351 yards and three touchdowns, but the result was the same.We put ourselves in a tough spot, Rodgers said. Weve got find a way to get a win next week and approach it one week at a time. Thats all weve got right now.The Redskins have a big meeting at Dallas to look forward to. The Cowboys (9-1) have won nine in a row.Were feeling good, but at the same time its a short week and were playing one of the best teams in the NFL on Thursday, Cousins said.GGREEN BAY IN DEEP: The loss put the Packers two games back of the Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions in the NFC North.dddddddddddd Each team won Sunday, meaning Green Bay may need to pull off a heck of a feat to return to the playoffs.We clearly understand the urgency thats in front of us, coach Mike McCarthy said.GUTSY GRUDEN: After kickers around the league missed 11 extra-point attempts going in, Washington coach Jay Gruden opted to go for 2 twice -- and converted neither. But he was validated when Green Bays Mason Crosby missed a 36-yard attempt at that end in the third quarter and when his kicker, Dustin Hopkins, shanked an extra-point attempt off the right upright in the fourth.Gruden was feeling risky all night, going for it on fourth-and-1 from his own 41 with 6:22 left. Cousins sneaked it to convert and reward his coach, and the drive finished with a touchdown by Kelley.The fourth-and-1 was pretty simple: It was half a yard, and the wind was pretty strong in our face, Gruden said. Thought our offensive line was getting pretty good movement (and) wed get half a yard with the quarterback sneak play.BANGED-UP PACKERS: Already missing offensive linemen J.C. Tretter and T.J. Lang, the Packers lost cornerback Demitri Goodson (knee), replacement right guard Don Barclay (shoulder), linebacker Blake Marinez (knee) and safety Kentrell Brice (back).QUICK-STRIKE OFFENSE: While the offenses were on ice early in the night, they combined for two touchdowns in the first 35 seconds of the fourth quarter. Rodgers 31-yard touchdown pass to a wide-open James Starks came on the first play of the fourth, and Cousins connected with Garcon on a 70-yard touchdown on the second play of the Redskins next drive.QUOTABLEKelley on his special night: Real special, especially for the guys in the fantasy leagues.Packers safety Micah Hyde: We have way too much talent in this locker room to be performing like that. But week in, week out, were doing it. Im speechless.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
