Dodgers rally past Diamondbacks, Rangers snap skid
The Los Angeles Dodgers produced a fine comeback in MLB on Tuesday, while the Texas Rangers ended their losing run.
The Dodgers trailed the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-1 before rallying for a 10-9 victory after 10 innings.
A four-run seventh inning brought the Dodgers level as Gavin Lux, Edwin Rios and Mookie Betts all had RBIs.
And they broke the game open in the 10th inning, highlighted by Lux's three-run homer as they took a 10-9 lead before holding on.
Lux finished the game three-for-five with five RBIs as the high-flying Dodgers improved to 31-12.
