<p>SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Freddie Freeman blooped a single into shallow right-center with two outs in the 11th inning to score James Outman for the go-ahead run, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Francisco Giants 5-2 on Sunday for a winning series, one day after snapping a season-worst, seven-game losing streak.</p>

<p>Spencer Bivens (2-3) intentionally walked Shohei Ohtani to start the 11th and retired Mookie Betts and Will Smith before Freeman delivered with a ball that dropped between three Giants.</p>

<p>Teoscar Hernández then beat out an infield single for an insurance run and Andy Pages followed with an RBI single.</p>

<p>Ben Casparius (7-3) got Willy Adames to ground out ending the 10th, then pitched a perfect 11th for the win.</p>

<p>Pinch-hitter Luis Matos hit a tying two-run homer in the ninth after Matt Chapman's one-out single started the rally against Tanner Scott, who blew his seventh save in 26 opportunities.</p>

<p>Miguel Rojas homered and Freeman had an early RBI double that had Los Angeles ahead until the ninth.</p>

<p>Dodgers starter and first-time All-Star Yoshinobu Yamamoto struck out seven over seven innings and allowed three hits.</p>

<p>The defending World Series champion Dodgers (58-39) entered the All-Star break atop the NL West after finishing the first half with nine straight games against clubs with winning records.</p>

<p>Manager Dave Roberts and his staff head to manage the NL All-Stars in Atlanta, where he said Sunday he plans to pitch left-hander Clayton Kershaw early in what could be his final Midsummer Classic.</p>

<p>Los Angeles had done just enough against Giants lefty Robbie Ray in a game featuring just 11 total hits.</p>

<p>Key play</p>

<p>Giants left fielder Heliot Ramos made a leaping catch on the wall to rob Ohtani of an extra-base hit to start the game. Ohtani walked in the fourth, singled in the fifth and flied out in the eighth.</p>

<p>Key stat</p>

<p>San Francisco (52-45) reached the break with 52 wins for the fifth time over the last 20 seasons — also doing so when it won the NL West with a franchise-best 107 victories in 2021, 2016, '14 and '11.</p>

<p>Up next</p>

<p>Neither club had set its rotation for after the All-Star break, when the Dodgers host Milwaukee to begin a six-game homestand on Friday and the Giants visit Toronto.</p>
