Arenado’s HR in 16th helps Rockies beat Dodgers 5-4

Nolan Arenado hit his NL-leading 39th home run in the 16th inning, and the Colorado Rockies capitalized on a throwing error by rookie shortstop Corey Seager to score three runs in the fourth en route to a 5-4 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night.

But Heisey drove in the tying run with an infield hit to third baseman Arenado, who charged the dribbler with the infield in and couldn’t get a grip on the wet ball as rookie Scott Schebler raced home.
