In Los Angeles, Shawn Estes won for the fourth time in five decisions and Vinny Castilla homered as Colorado snapped Los Angeles' eight-game winning streak.

Estes (10-4) allowed four runs on five hits and struck out five in 6 1-3 innings. It was his third victory of the season over the NL West-leading Dodgers, who lost for only the second time in 16 games.

The Dodgers' Adrian Beltre hit a sacrifice fly -- which would have been a two-run homer if not for a leaping grab at the fence by left fielder Jeromy Burnitz in the sixth. Kazuhisa Ishii (11-5) allowed six runs in 3 1-3 innings.
