Unlucky 13th Does in Dodgers

The Los Angeles Dodgers fell to the San Francisco Giants 7-5 in 13 innings, dropping the series 2 games to one. The game went into extra innings with the score tied at four apiece, but Guillermo Mota surrendered the lead run in the 12th. However, Casey Blake hit a line-drive homer to keep the game alive. But Mota could not, giving up two in the 13th and the Dodgers could not respond. Juan Pierre had three hits and scored three times, and Blake had a hit in all three at-bats. Orlando Hudson doubled and drove in two, and Rafael Furcal had a run-batted-in. The Dodgers exhausted the entire bullpen minus Brent Leach when Jeff Weaver could only go five innings. Randy Winn finished with four hits, four runs scored, and the game-winning two-run single. Edgar Renteria added two hits, a run, and an RBI, and Emmanuel Burriss had four hits.
