The Giants gained their ninth victory without a defeat in extra-inning games this season when Tito Fuentes homered in the 11th to beat the Dodgers, 3-2. The Giants scored an unearned run in the third, but the Dodgers bounced back in the fourth to take the lead on a single by Steve Garvey and homer by Ron Cey. Gary Matthews tied the score with a circuit clout in the sixth. [The Sporting News]
