Chris Taylor hits a game-tying grand slam for his 100th career homer and scores the game-winning run, while the bullpen pitches six scoreless innings in a 5-4 win.
LOS ANGELES ― A bold display of power got the Dodgers back in the game Thursday against the Chicago White Sox.Freddie Freeman’s bases-loaded single to the warning track drove in Chris Taylor in the 11th inning of a 5-4 victory over the Chicago White Sox as the Dodgers avoided losing a fourth consecutive series.
Freeman clobbered a 3-and-1 pitch to deep center field, where Luis Robert Jr. did not bother to move in pursuit of the fly ball. It came to rest on the warning track – technically a single – as Taylor trotted home with the game-winning run. Betts and Rojas each had two of the Dodgers’ nine hits. The bullpen pitched six scoreless innings in relief of starter Michael Grove.
In the sixth, singles by Will Smith and David Peralta gave the Dodgers runners on first and second with one out, and knocked Cease out of the game.
