Kemp beats the heat; L.A. tops the Reds

CINCINNATI - Matt Kemp couldn't believe the midafternoon heat during batting practice. "After BP, I was like this," he said, dropping his head as if he was about to pass out. "Whew!"

CINCINNATI - Matt Kemp couldn't believe the midafternoon heat during batting practice.

"After BP, I was like this," he said, dropping his head as if he was about to pass out. "Whew!"

The heat won't be the lasting memory from this game.

Kemp hit a tying grand slam in the eighth inning - his second homer of the game - and Jamey Carroll singled in the go-ahead run in the 11th, sending the Los Angeles Dodgers to an 11-8 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday.

The Dodgers pulled off their biggest comeback of the season and improved to 5-0 in extra innings.

Carroll's fourth hit started a four-run rally off Carlos Fisher (0-3). Aaron Miles also singled home a run, and Fisher's throwing error helped the Dodgers pull away. Kemp finished it with a run-scoring force-out for his career-high sixth RBI.

"It was real hard, but I made it through it," Kemp said, cracking open a bottle of water in front of his locker. "It was definitely a big game for me."

Rookie Javy Guerra (1-0) pitched out of a threat in the 10th for his first big-league win.

The Reds scored a run in the 11th before Ramon Troncoso got Brandon Phillips to fly out with two runners aboard.

The Reds took advantage of Clayton Kershaw's fade on a steamy afternoon, pulling ahead, 7-2, after seven innings. Joey Votto's three-run homer off the lefthander put righthander Johnny Cueto in line for his first career win over the Dodgers.

The NL's busiest bullpen couldn't hold on. Cincinnati's relievers lead the league in innings, and manager Dusty Baker used six on Saturday without success.

"That's tough to take," Baker said. "That just goes to show how things can change on you in a minute."

Kemp has 15 homers overall, two behind Cincinnati's Jay Bruce for the NL lead.

Rockies 2, Giants 1

SAN FRANCISCO - Troy Tulowitzki had three hits and Jhoulys Chacin pitched six effective innings as Colorado beat San Francisco.

Tulowitzki is batting .353 (12 for 34) in his last nine games.

"This is what he has coming to him," Rockies manager Jim Tracy said. "Several of the balls he's hit have been vicious line drives that end up in a fielder's glove. Sooner or later those things are going to turn."

D'backs 2, Nationals 0

PHOENIX - Joe Saunders escaped two early jams to go seven innings in a combined four-hitter, lifting Arizona over Washington.

Stephen Drew and Xavier Nady drove in runs with extra-base hits off Livan Hernandez (3-7), which was more than enough for Saunders (3-5). The lefthander retired the final 14 batters and held the Nationals to two hits, a night after Josh Collmenter limited them to three in seven scoreless innings.
