PHOENIX (AP) — Trevor Cahill pitched seven solid innings to help the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-3 on Saturday night.

Cahill (7-7) gave up three runs and six hits and improved to 17-1 in his past 22 starts when Arizona scores three or more runs.

Trailing 2-0, Arizona scored three runs in the fifth inning. Gerardo Parra had a two-run double and then scored on Stephen Drew’s sacrifice fly. The Diamondbacks added another run in the sixth on Paul Goldschmidt’s sacrifice fly.

Chad Billingsley (4-9) lost his fifth straight start and hasn’t won since June 10 at Seattle. He allowed four runs on six hits and struck out five in six innings.

J.J. Putz pitched the ninth for his 16th save in 19 chances.
