EmailPrintOpen Extended ReactionsPHOENIX -- 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.The Dodgers won despite Edwin Diaz blowing his second consecutive save after losing a 1-0 lead in the ninth.Los Angeles rallied with two outs in the 10th when Hunter Feduccia walked and automatic runner Kyle Tucker moved to third on a wild pitch. Ohtani followed with a grounder to the right side that first baseman Tim Tawa dove to knock down, but couldn't recover to make an out.Jack Dreyer earned his first save of the season, retiring the final two outs by fielding a comebacker from Ryan Waldschmidt and starting a double play."That was a tough one," Los Angeles manager Dave Roberts said. "We'll take it. It comes down to the pitchers competed all night, some of them were sharp, some of them weren't."The Diamondbacks trailed 1-0 entering the ninth, but Geraldo Perdomo and Corbin Carroll connected for back-to-back triples off closer Diaz to tie it. Diaz recovered to retire the next three batters, stranding Carroll at third to send the game to extra innings.Los Angeles star Kyle 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."It wasn't pretty," Roberts said. "Offensively, we've just got to get going. It's hard to win games when your margin for winning is a razor's edge. It's not like guys aren't trying, but it's a tough way to pitch, and have to be perfect."Arizona's Brandon Pfaadt and Los Angeles' Yoshinobu Yamamoto were locked in an impressive pitcher's duel for most of the evening, with both right-handers breezing through the opposing lineup.Pfaadt made it through seven innings, giving up just two hits and two walks while striking out two. He has a 1.32 ERA over eight starts since returning from Triple-A Reno."It's been a little bit of a grind lately," Tucker said. "(We) haven't played our best brand of baseball. But it's a long season, and it can happen at times. So, I'm glad to be back in the win column, and hopefully, we can continue that tomorrow."The Diamondbacks managed to drive up Yamamoto's pitch count into the 80s by the sixth inning, which started with a Gabriel Moreno single and Ketel Marte walk. Yamamoto retired the next two batters, but then was then replaced by Evan Phillips after throwing 107 pitches.Yamamoto gave up three walks and three hits while striking out six over 5 2/3 innings.Arizona left 15 runners on base in the loss.The Associated Press contributed to this report.
