Story

Will Smith hit a two-run double in the 10th inning to help the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Francisco Giants 6-4. This was the Dodgers' fourth win in a row against the Giants this season. Mookie Betts hit his 50th leadoff homer, and Kiké Hernández hit a pinch-hit homer to tie the game at 4 for Los Angeles. The Dodgers won in the 10th when Smith hit a ball to center field off Taylor Rogers to take the lead. The Dodgers' Blake Treinen got the win by picking off a runner in the ninth inning. J.P. Feyereisen got his first save as the Dodgers set a record by allowing four runs or fewer in 20 straight games. Luis Matos, playing in place of the injured Jung Hoo Lee, was the main scorer for the Giants with a three-run homer. The Giants' pitcher, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, faced trouble in the sixth inning after pitching well. San Francisco's Jordan Hicks allowed only two runs in five innings but didn't get the win as the bullpen couldn't hold the lead. The Giants' defense, especially Mike Yastrzemski's diving catch, helped limit the Dodgers' scoring. Dodgers' outfielder Jason Heyward will play for Triple-A Oklahoma City before returning. Giants' Jung Hoo Lee is on the injured list with a dislocated shoulder. Catcher Patrick Bailey was out due to cold symptoms after recovering from a concussion. The Dodgers' Gavin Stone will start the next game against the Giants' Keaton Winn.
