The Los Angeles Dodgers edged the San Diego Padres 5–4 on Sunday at Dodger Stadium, completing a three-game sweep and extending their lead in the National League West to two games. Mookie Betts delivered the decisive blow with a late homer, while Freddie Freeman and rookie Andy Pages also went deep earlier in the contest. Reliever Alex Vesia earned the win as the Dodgers improved to 71-53 and pushed their current winning streak to three.

Mookie Betts hit the game winning home run today as my @Dodgers swept the Padres and took a two-game lead in the Division. Freddie Freeman and Andy Pages added home runs in today’s 5-4 victory and Alex Vesia did great in relief!
