LOS ANGELES (AP) — Max Muncy’s sacrifice fly to center scored Shohei Ohtani with the winning run in the 10th inning, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 4-3 to snap a four-game skid on Tuesday night.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto tossed seven innings of one-hit ball, losing his no-hit bid on Ketel Marte’s single leading off the seventh. The Japanese right-hander struck out nine on a career-high 110 pitches.

The Dodgers scored three runs in the 10th after Arizona took a 3-1 lead in the top half of the inning on Corbin Carroll’s two-run homer off Tanner Scott.
