LOS ANGELES (AP) \u2014 Kik\u00e9 Hern\u00e1ndez hit a go-ahead RBI double in the seventh inning, Emmet Sheehan did not give up a run in 5 1\/3 innings, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Francisco Giants 3-1 on Sunday to complete a three-game sweep.<\/p>\n
Hern\u00e1ndez jumped on the first pitch he saw from Sam Hentges (1-7), driving in Max Muncy to put the Dodgers ahead 2-1. Muncy pushed an insurance run across with a single in the eighth.<\/p>\n
Kris Bubic (4-2) pitched 2\/3 of an inning for the win, and Tanner Scott handled the ninth inning for his 23rd save.<\/p>\n
Sheehan made the most of a bullpen game to strengthen his credentials for making the Dodgers\u2019 postseason roster as a long reliever. He had nine strikeouts against one hit and one walk after taking over from Jack Dreyer in the second inning.<\/p>\n
Matt Wilkinson allowed three hits and no walks while striking out six in five scoreless innings, but the Giants\u2019 bullpen buckled. The 23-year-old left-hander was acquired as part of the trade that sent catcher Patrick Bailey to Cleveland in May.<\/p>\n
Tommy Edman homered to right in the sixth inning to tie the game at 1, tagging reliever Carson Seymour for the 400-foot shot.<\/p>\n
Jonah Cox drew a leadoff walk to help spot the Giants their 1-0 lead. Cox reached second on a bad pickoff attempt by Dreyer before stealing third, and Victor Bericoto\u2019s single drove him home.<\/p>\n
