Game Day: Diamondbacks blow 9th-inning lead, fall behind Dodgers in National League West

By the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Matt Kemp beat the Diamondbacks for the second straight game, hitting a two-run double in the ninth inning that lifted the Los Angeles Dodgers over Arizona 3-2 Sunday for sole possession of first place in the NL West.

A day after Kemp launched a go-ahead, three-run homer in the eighth against Archie Bradley, the Dodgers slugger tagged him again to break a tie for the division lead.

Kemp's one-out drive off the wall in left-center field put Los Angeles alone atop the West for the first time since Aug.
