David Peralta collected the tie-breaking RBI by beating out the back end of a potential inning-ending double play in the eighth inning Saturday night, and the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers went on to beat the skidding New York Mets 5-1.
Peralta added an RBI single during a three-run ninth, while Mookie Betts went 4-for-4 with a third-inning homer for the Dodgers, who have won six straight.
The Dodgers left the bases loaded in the sixth and stranded two in the seventh before finally scoring the tie-breaking run against Adam Ottavino in the eighth.
