Arizona rough up Hill in 7-6 win over Dodgers

A.J. Pollock hit a tworun homer and the Arizona Diamondbacks roughed up Rich Hill in his follow-up to a near no-hitter for a 7-6 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night.

Hill (9-6) pitched nine no-hit innings against Pittsburgh on Wednesday, losing the no-hitter and the game on Josh Harrison’s walk-off homer in the 10th.

The Diamondbacks scored 11 runs to complete a threegame sweep of San Francisco on Sunday and kept hitting after a day off, knocking around Hill in a five-run first inning.

Paul Goldschmidt homered and Fernando Rodney allowed a run-scoring single by Chris Taylor in the ninth before closing out his 33rd save.

The wild card-leading Diamondbacks have won five straight. Taylor hit a two-run homer and Yasiel Puig a solo shot off Zack Godley (6-7) for the NL West-leading Dodgers, who have lost three in a row for the first time since early June.

Hill was nearly flawless on Wednesday, taking a perfect game into the ninth inning before becoming the first pitcher in major league history to have a no-hitter end with a walk-off homer.

The left-hander was hit hard from the start by the Diamondbacks. Pollock launched a two-run homer, Goldschmidt lined an infield single off Hill’s left leg.
