SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Robbie Rogers scored two goals and the Eastern Division-leading Columbus Crew scored three times in the final 20 minutes to win their fifth straight game, 3-2 over the San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday night.

Trailing 1-0 Rogers scored in the 73rd and 81st minutes to give the Crew (6-1) the lead for good.

Brad Evans scored at 83 minutes, making it 3-1 before the expansion Earthquakes (1-4-1) closed to 3-2 on a high-flying header by Ryan Johnson at the 89th minute.

San Jose, last in the league in virtually every offensive category, broke a scoreless tie with its first goal in 251 minutes and only its third of the season when Corrales headed home a corner kick from Ronnie O'Brien just inside the penalty area at 41:55.

Corrales lunged right in front of goalie William Hesmer and between Columbus' Brian Carroll and Alejandro Moreno and headed home the ball into the top left corner. It was the first MLS goal for Corrales since October 2004. The 31-year-old midfielder had spent the last three seasons in Norway.

Columbus tied it at 73:00 when Emmanuel Ekpo fed Rogers, who beat goalie Joe Cannon to the near post with a left-footed shot. Rogers scored his fifth goal of the year eight minutes later after a feed by Alejandro Moreno and a defensive breakdown.

Evans gave the Crew a two-goal cushion two minutes later with another wide open shot after an assist by Guillermo Barros Schelotto.

Columbus, which moved past Chicago into sole possession of first place, had 18 corner kicks to San Jose's 7.

Played before 9,318 fans, this was the second game ever played at Santa Clara for the Earthquakes, an original member of the MLS that moved to Houston at the end of the 2005 season.
