LOS ANGELES -- The seventh inning took 72 minutes to complete, saw 21 batters come up, and twelve runs cross the plate. It gave the Los Angeles Dodgers offense the opportunity for its most memorable outburst yet.Yasmani Grandals RBI single capped the Dodgers five-run rally in their 9-7 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday night.Every win is a big one, but that arguably is the best win of the year, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. My memory might be short, but, yeah, we are resilient.Joc Pederson and Chase Utley each hit two-run home runs in the deciding rally as the Dodgers erased a 7-3 deficit and improved to 17-9 since June 26.It was exciting for sure. For them to score seven runs that inning, and for us to battle back its impressive, Utley said. It shows the guys arent giving up. We were getting great at-bats that whole inning and capitalized on some mistakes.Three batters after Corey Seager doubled against Zac Curtis (0-1), Grandal hit a 2-1 pitch from Randall Delgado into center field, scoring Seager from third with the tiebreaking run.For the offense to respond like that: to give up seven runs and come back and score score five runs, and never quit, Roberts said. Earlier in the year, that probably would never have happened.Los Angeles pulled one game behind the division-leading Giants, the closest the Dodgers have been to first place since May 15.They were hot for a second there, but its not how you start its how you finish, said Pederson. Its going to come right down to the end. Were just going to continue to play Dodger baseball and things will take care of themselves.Los Angeles sent 10 men to the plate in the bottom of the seventh, a half-inning after the Diamondbacks sent 11 men to the plate and scored seven runs.Its frustrating. I feel bad for the guys, said Diamondbacks Manager Chip Hale. They battled their hearts out.We did a great job of scoring runs. We continued to score runs.Paul Goldschmidt capped a three-hit night with a bases-loaded double off Pedro Baez (3-2) that finished off Diamondbacks rally consisting of six hits and a pair of walks against five Dodger pitchers.Arizona lost for the eighth time in their last 10 games.With the Dodgers trailing 7-3, Pederson, who also had a two-run double in the second, tied his career-high with four RBI with a two-run homer off Daniel Hudson, pulling the Dodgers to 7-5.After Scott Van Slyke walked, Utley hit the first pitch he saw from Curtis (0-1) over the right-center field wall to tie the score.Seager then scored the tiebreaking run later in the inning and added an RBI double in the bottom of the eighth for the final margin.Kenley Jansen retired the final four Arizona hitters for his 31st save.The Diamondbacks seventh-inning explosion squashed Kenta Maedas bid to become the first rookie to win 10 games this year.Maeda held the Diamondbacks to two runs and four hits, retiring 16 of 17 hitters as he shut out Arizona through six innings. He struck five and did not walk a batter.Over his last four starts, Maeda has struck out 26 and walked one over 23 innings.Rookie Andrew Toles notched his first career RBI for Los Angeles.TRAINERS ROOMDiamondbacks: Zack Greinke was on a 60-pitch limit Friday night in a rehab start in an Arizona rookie league game in Mesa, Arizona. If he pitches and recovers without incident, Greinke would be on an 80-pitch limit in his next start. The Diamondbacks would decide if that start would be at the major- or minor-league level, manager Chip Hale said Friday. ... Socrates Brito (fractured fight toe) made another rehab start Friday night at Single-A Visalia.Dodgers: Yasiel Puig (hamstring) was out of the Dodgers starting lineup for the seventh game in a row. The Dodgers are off again Monday, their third off day in eight days, which has allowed them to go with four starters and keep from deciding whether Puig should go on the disabled list. ... Adam Liberatore (sore right knee) was available after sitting out Tuesday and Wednesday night.NEXT UPDiamondbacks: Braden Shipley (0-1, 10.13 ERA) makes his second career start. Rated the Diamondbacks No. 1 prospect by MLB.com, Shipley gave up six runs and eight hits over 5 1/3 innings in his debut against Milwaukee on Monday night.Dodgers: LHP Scott Kazmir (9-3,4.35) looks for his eighth consecutive decision on Saturday against a team he has not faced since 2007 with Tampa Bay. Kazmir is the National Leagues only unbeaten starter since May 14, going 7-0 with a 3.73 ERA in 13 starts. NMD CS2 Australia . -- Brandon Jennings made the most of his first game with the Detroit Pistons on Sunday night. NMD R1 Womens Sale . The No. 1-ranked Nadal tweaked his back warming up for the Australian Open final, which he lost almost four weeks ago in a major upset against Stanislas Wawrinka.

Varlamov made 33 saves and Ryan OReilly had a goal and scored in the shootout as the Avalanche beat the New Jersey Devils 2-1 on Thursday night. Adidas Superstar Australia . The Hall of Fame defenceman told Landsberg that he believes fighting still has a place in todays game, but thinks staged fighting needs be outlawed. NMD R1 Mens Sale . -- Gus Malzahn finally had his day in Fayetteville. On just the second day of The International 6, the audience in KeyArena saw David slay Goliath. TnC Gaming, one of the Southeast Asian qualifier teams, took down tournament favorites OG 2-0.The OG squad, captained by Tal Fly Aizik, came into TI6 as clear favorites for a top spot. The victors of both the Frankfurt and Manila Majors, the five players of OG are considered to be among the best in Dota. From Amer Miracle- Al-Barkawi, widely considered one of the best mid laners in the scene, to highlight-worthy supports like Andreas Cr1t- Nielsen, there was little doubt this team would rise to the top, even after being sent to the lower bracket by MVP Phoenix.Enter TnC Gaming, led by longtime North American Dota player Jimmy DeMoN Ho. This team went 7-7 in the group stage against stiff competition, but was still unfavored in the matchup. However, given players like Nico eyyou Barcelon, a four-role support who can exert the same level of pressure as Cr1t-, and cores Marc Raven Fausto and Carlo Kuku Palad, this TnC squad might have been the most underestimated at the tournament.In game one, OG drafted a comfortable, proven set of heroes, utilizing the synergy of Medusa and Drow Ranger to push early and fast. Despite a net worth lead for most of the early game, OG struggled to keep its cores alive and pushing, with Johan n0tail Sundstein giving up a series of early deaths that halted the teams momentum. TnC ddragged it out, relying on Ravens Lifestealer to get the items needed, while eyyou constantly made space and picks for TnC.ddddddddddddDespite having Miracle- on a strong pick, he wasnt able to carry against the dual threats of TnC, and OG tapped out just after the 54-minute mark.OG sprang back in game two, turning to the signature Tiny-Wisp combination that few teams ever allow to slip through the first ban phase. In response, TnC drafted a Drow strategy of its own, turning to a Vengeful Spirit and Huskar for an explosive early game to shut down Miracle-s Ember Spirit. Again, OG had an early game lead, pushing TnC repeatedly back into its own base, breaking tower after tower and dominating the first 30 minutes. TnC bent, faltered, but never broke, somehow rebuffing OG right at the last critical moment every time. A series of excellent chronospheres and catch-outs gradually pushed TnC up, and eventually TnC found itself inside OGs base, hammering the final nail in the coffin and forcing out the win.TnC advances to the top eight of TI6, the first team from the Philippines to ever do so, and will compete again tomorrow in the next round of the lower bracket. OG finishes in the 9th-12th bracket, and will now have to face questions of roster swaps and an uncertain road to TI7. ' ' '
