L.A. takes 11 innings to beat Atlanta, 5-4
LOS ANGELES - A single by A.J. Ellis in the 11th inning drove in the winning run as the Los Angeles Dodgers took a 5-4 victory over the Atlanta Braves on Sunday and earned a split of their four-game series.
LOS ANGELES - A single by A.J. Ellis in the 11th inning drove in the winning run as the Los Angeles Dodgers took a 5-4 victory over the Atlanta Braves on Sunday and earned a split of their four-game series.
Pinch-hitter Russell Martin drew a leadoff walk from Jesse Chavez (0-0), advanced on Blake DeWitt's bunt, and came home when Ellis stroked a 1-2 pitch to left field for his seventh RBI of the season.
Dodgers relievers Jonathan Broxton and Ronald Belisario ended the Braves' ninth and 10th innings with strikeouts - each stranding a runner at third. Belisario (1-0) pitched two innings of two-hit ball for the victory.
Braves starter Tim Hudson allowed four runs - three earned - and nine hits in seven-plus innings. The two-time all-star was about to make his third pitch of the eighth inning to Matt Kemp when he was distracted by someone in the crowd who had an object that was reflecting the sun right into his eyes.
The game was held up about 5 minutes until stadium security could identify the fan in question, and Kemp singled on Hudson's next delivery. At that point, Eric O'Flaherty relieved Hudson.
Dodgers rookie John Ely gave up four runs and nine hits over five innings.

PHOENIX - Ubaldo Jimenez became the first 11-game winner in the majors, although he lost his scoreless-innings streak after a franchise record 33, and Colorado held on to avoid being swept in Arizona.
Jimenez allowed six hits, struck out eight, and walked three.
Chris Snyder of Arizona had his streak of 240 games without an error, the third-longest by a catcher in major-league history, end when he overthrew second on Brad Hawpe's steal attempt in the sixth inning.
