MIAMI (AP) — Freddie Freeman drove in the go-ahead run with a grounder in the top of the 10th inning, Chris Martin escaped a bases-loaded jam in the bottom half and the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Miami Marlins 3-2 on Monday night.

Trea Turner had his 1,000th career hit with an infield single against reliever Huascar Brazoban (0-1) to begin the Dodgers 10th, advancing automatic runner Cody Bellinger to third.

Freeman hit a grounder to first baseman Charles Leblanc, who got a forceout at second as Bellinger scored. Freeman had two earlier hits and leads the majors with 163.

Jon Berti walked to lead off the bottom half against reliever Craig Kimbrel (4-5) and Brian Anderson reached on a fielder’s choice, advancing automatic runner Joey Wendle to third. Kimbrel then walked JJ Bleday.

Martin relieved Kimbrel and struck out Garrett Cooper and retired Jacob Stallings on a popout to first for his first save.

The Dodgers, with the best record in the majors, took three of four in the series.

The game had been tied since the fifth, when Lewin Diaz hit an RBI single for Miami to make it 2-2.

The NL-West leading Dodgers jumped ahead in the third after Will Smith hit a two-run shot over the center field for his 19th home run of the season. Smith, the Dodgers’ All-Star catcher, was named to Team USA in the World Baseball Classic, which will be played in spring 2023. He is joining teammate Mookie Betts, who announced last week that he’ll be on the team.

Joey Wendle hit a leadoff double in the Miami first and later scored on Brian Anderson’s groundout to give the Marlins a 1-0 lead.

Earlier in the day, the Dodgers placed All-Star pitcher Tony Gonsolin on the injured list because of a strained right forearm.

Gonsolin has an NL-best 2.10 ERA and is tied with Houston’s Justin Verlander and Atlanta’s Kyle Wright for the most wins in the majors at 16.

Wheeling Park grad Michael Grove was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City and started in Gonsolin’s place. The right-hander allowed five hits, two runs, walked one and struck out four in 4 2/3 innings.

Diaz and Wendle had two hits for the Marlins, who were 1 for 13 with runners in scoring position.

Betts, a six-time All-Star who homered in the first three games of the series, didn’t start but came in as a defensive replacement in the 10th.

Marlins starter Pablo Lopez was lifted after six innings. He allowed two runs, five hits, walked three and struck out six.

BERTI’S LEAPING CATCH

Berti halted the Dodgers’ scoring threat in the first with a leaping catch at third base to rob Justin Turner of a base hit and keep the game scoreless.
