Gordon, Dodgers beat White Sox 2-1 in 10 innings

And to top it off, Dee Gordon hit a game-ending single in the 10th after failing to bunt a runner over in a key situation the previous inning. It all added up to a 2-1 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Sunday in the rubber game of an interleague series between division leaders.

"We just grinded it out today and were able to come through in the end," Tony Gwynn Jr. said. "It was a bunch of guys who did it. It was good to see Dee come up big like that after he missed the bunt. He was pretty down after that."

Gwynn lined a one-out triple under the glove of a diving Jordan Danks as he charged the ball in left field. Matt Treanor followed with a hard grounder to second baseman Gordon Beckham with the infield in, forcing Gwynn to stay put. Bobby Abreu was intentionally walked and Gordon lined a single to left against Matt Thornton (2-5), whose wild pitch in the eighth inning of Friday's series opener let in the decisive run.

Ronald Belisario (3-0) pitched two hitless innings for the victory.

Dodgers left-hander Chris Capuano yielded a run and eight hits over eight innings and had a season-high 12 strikeouts, after going 5-0 with a 1.66 ERA in his six previous home starts with Los Angeles.

Chicago rookie Jose Quintana scattered five hits over eight scoreless innings, striking out six and walking none in his seventh big league start. The 23-year-old left-hander was removed by first-year manager Robin Ventura with a 1-0 lead after just 77 pitches. Addison Reed absorbed his first blown save in nine chances this season.

"This is what Reed does," Ventura said in defense of his decision. "And we have a lot more games to go, even with Q. He pitched great, but right there I wanted to go to the closer."

Singles by Abreu and Elian Herrera put runners at the corners with one out, and Abreu scored on Juan Rivera's sac fly to right.

"I made a couple of bad pitches and they hit them," Reed said. "The pitch to Abreu was supposed to be a high fastball out of the zone, but I didn't get it high enough and it got a little too much of the zone. Anytime you lose a game it stinks, especially when the starting pitcher throws as well as Quintana did."

Treanor led off the sixth with a bunt single and was at third base when Herrera hit what appeared to be a tying sacrifice fly. But Treanor was called out to end the inning after umpire Jerry Meals ruled that he left the bag too soon.
