Travis Taijeron and Angelo Mora each paced the Dodgers' offense with four hits apiece, while Henry Ramos and Andrew Toles each drove in three runs for Oklahoma City, which outhit the River Cats, 16-13.

The River Cats (29-32) tied the game in the bottom of the inning when Steven Duggar drove in two runs with a double to center field.
The Dodgers regained the advantage in the third inning. Toles drew a leadoff walk before Ramos connected on his fourth homer of the season - but first since April 17 - for a 4-2 Oklahoma City lead.
Oklahoma City loaded the bases in the fourth inning with none out and Toles was hit by a pitch to extend the Dodgers' lead to 5-2. With the bases loaded again, Ramos hit a sacrifice fly to left field to put the Dodgers in front, 6-2, and collect his third RBI of the night.
Sacramento scored a run with two outs in the bottom of the fourth inning with a RBI double by Duggar - his second double of the night - to cut Oklahoma City's lead to three runs.
Mora's RBI triple in the fifth inning pushed Oklahoma City's lead to 7-3. Pitcher Tyler Pill then brought home another run later in the inning with a RBI single for an 8-3 Dodgers advantage.
A two-out, two-run double by Toles extended the Dodgers' lead to 10-3 in the seventh inning. Toles has hit safely in each of his nine games with Oklahoma City this season.
Myles Schroder's solo homer for Sacramento in the bottom of the seventh cut Oklahoma City's advantage to six runs.
The River Cats chipped away more at the Dodgers' lead in the eighth inning on a two-run home run by Chris Shaw out to right-center field, cutting Oklahoma City's lead to 10-6.
Dodgers reliever Joe Broussard then entered the game to pitch the ninth inning and struck out the side to keep Sacramento from reaching any closer on the scoreboard.
