Los Angeles. On Saturday night at Dodger Stadium, the Los Angeles Dodgers rallied for six runs in the fourth inning and defeated the Chicago Cubs 12-4, snapping Chicago's Major League Baseball-leading 10-game winning streak. Roki Sasaki started for the Dodgers, allowing four runs and striking out five while pitching into the sixth inning. The Dodgers totaled 14 hits and set a season high for runs at home, adding four more runs in the sixth inning; Andy Pages delivered a two-run double and later scored on a wild pitch after Vince Velasquez had been called up Friday.
