Dodgers wrap up sweep of D-backs
Justin Turner hit a three-run homer in the fourth inning and the Los Angeles Dodgers rallied past the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-3 on Wednesday to complete a four-game sweep at Dodger Stadium.
The Dodgers won their fifth straight overall, finishing off a 5-3 homestand that included eight games in seven days and four within 42 hours. Arizona has lost five in a row. Turner sent a 3-2 pitch from Zach Davies (22) into the lower left-field pavilion putting the Dodgers back in front 4-2 in the fourth inning.
Gavin Lux added a two-out RBI single in the fourth that made it 5-2.
Walker Buehler (5-1) allowed two runs and six hits in five innings. The right-hander struck out four and walked two.
BREWERS 7, BRAVES 6, 11 INNINGS >> Keston Hiura returned to the majors and hit a two-run, winning homer off Jesse Chavez in the 11th as Milwaukee rallied from a four-run deficit to beat visiting Atlanta.
Hiura, called up from Triple-A Nashville earlier in the day, led off the bottom of the 11th by sending a 1-2 sinker from Chavez (01) over the center-field wall. The drive scored automatic runner Jace Peterson.
PHILLIES 3, PADRES 0 >> Zack Wheeler struck out nine over seven innings, Rhys Hoskins homered and host Philadelphia beat San Diego.

Pivetta finished with eight strikeouts and didn't issue a walk.
YANKEES 3, ORIOLES 2 >> Gerrit Cole outpitched Jordan Lyles in a duel of veteran right-handers, and visiting New York squeezed past skidding Baltimore to clinch its ninth straight series win.
