Dodgers snap seven-game skid, defeat Diamondbacks in 10 - ESPN

PHOENIX — Shohei Ohtani brought home the go-ahead run in the 10th inning on an infield single and the Los Angeles Dodgers snapped a seven-game losing streak by beating the Arizona Diamondbacks 2-1 on Saturday night.

Tucker hit a solo homer to break a scoreless tie in the eighth, driving the second pitch he saw from reliever Jonathan Loaisiga over the right-field wall.
