 LOS ANGELES (AP) - Chip Ambres singled home the go-ahead run in the 10th inning, and the New York Mets beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-4 Sunday to take three of four in a series between division leaders.
New York tied the score in the ninth when Matt Kemp allowed Shawn Green's fly to short right to fall for an error as pinch-runner Anderson Hernandez came home from third.
With the score 4-all in the 10th, Lastings Milledge singled with one out against D.J. Houlton (0-1). Carlos Beltran singled and David Wright grounded sharply to third, just beating the relay throw to avoid a double play. Ambres, who entered in the ninth, then grounded a single past third baseman Nomar Garciaparra, who was playing in on the edge of the grass with two outs.
