Dodgers go 12 innings, Beat Pirates 4-3

James Loney came through again, this time in the 12th inning with an RBI single, as the Dodgers rallied to beat the Pirates 4-3 and get even closer to clinching the NL West title.

Dodgers skipper Joe Torre said, “Every day is like the season. You go out there and do it every day, that’s our mentality… to go 12 innings today, especially the number of chances we had let get away, was a gift.”

The Dodgers currently have a 3.5 game lead over the Diamondbacks.
