Dodgers Top Rockies 6-5 in 12th on Wild Pitch

colorado-rockiesLOS ANGELES (AP) — Scott Van Slyke scored the winning run on Franklin Morales’ wild pitch in the 12th inning, and the Los Angeles Dodgers edged the Colorado Rockies 6-5 on Saturday night.

The Dodgers (93-68) have won four straight, including an NL West-clinching victory over San Francisco on Wednesday. They are locked into the league’s No. 2 playoff seed.

Colorado’s bullpen retired 18 straight, a stretch that spanned from the sixth inning until the 12th.

Van Slyke singled with one out, advanced to second when Tim Federowicz was hit by pitch, stole third and came home on Morales’ wild pitch.

Carlos Frias (1-1) pitched three scoreless innings for Los Angeles for his first major league win.

Morales (6-9) took the loss for Colorado (66-95), which has dropped three straight.
