Tommy Edman delivers a 10th-inning walk-off single as the Dodgers edge the Pirates 5-4
On Friday night, Tommy Edman delivered a crucial 10th-inning walk-off single, securing a 5-4 victory for the Los Angeles Dodgers over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Edman's line drive to left field, off Gregory Soto, scored the decisive run for the Dodgers, making them the only undefeated team in extra innings this season. The NL West-leading Dodgers have won eight of their last 11 games.
Pittsburgh's Oneil Cruz hit a two-run homer in the eighth inning to tie the score at 4-4. Mookie Betts hit a two-run single with two outs in the third inning, putting the Dodgers ahead 4-2. Yoshinobu Yamamoto, the Dodgers starter, allowed two runs and five hits in 6 1/3 innings, striking out nine. However, he was relieved after putting the tying runs aboard in the seventh.
Jake Mangum and Yamamoto were the only Pirates to reach base in the inning. Reliever Brock Stewart closed out the game with a successful appearance.
