Freddie Freeman had four hits including a home run and posted three RBIs, Mookie Betts homered among his three hits, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 8-1 in Phoenix on Sunday.

Freeman had the first of two doubles to drive in a run in the first, hit a sacrifice fly in the fifth and had a solo homer in the seventh to help stake the Dodgers to a 5-0 lead and ultimately earn them a split of the four-game series.

The Dodgers have won 11 of 15.

Arizona right-hander Zac Gallen (3-5) gave up four runs on a season-high 10 hits, with five strikeouts and two walks over 5 2/3 innings. He is 1-5 in 14 career starts against the Dodgers and has given up 23 runs in his last 24 2/3 innings against them.
