Los Angeles, CA (Sports Network) - Matt Kemp's two-run home run in the bottom of the 12th inning sent Los Angeles to a 5-3 decision over Philadelphia in the finale of a three-game set.

Jake Diekman (1-1) retired the first batter he faced, but walked Mark Ellis before Kemp cleared the wall in right center with plenty of room to spare to end the game.

Jamey Wright (4-2) stranded runners on the corners in the top of the frame to earn the win.
