LOS ANGELES -- Justin Turner and the Dodgers arent thinking cruise control just yet. Jerry Rice Jersey .Rich Hill pitched six dominant innings in his first start with Los Angeles and Turner hit his 24th homer, lifting the Dodgers over the San Francisco Giants 1-0 on Wednesday night.Los Angeles has a three-game lead over the Giants atop the NL West after winning in back-to-back nights facing Madison Bumgarner and Johnny Cueto.Turner homered in the fourth for the first hit against Cueto. Turner has 20 homers since June 10.Its time to put our foot on the pedal and get some separation, Turner said.Hill (1-0) was on the disabled list with a blister on his left middle finger when the Dodgers acquired him from the Oakland Athletics on Aug. 1 along with outfielder Josh Reddick. He allowed five hits and struck out three while throwing 81 pitches in his first appearance since July 17.San Francisco has lost eight of 10. Cueto (14-4) allowed a run and four hits over six innings, and his lone mistake was the cutter he left over the plate to Turner.Its part of the game, Cueto said. You win 1-0, you lose 1-0. Theres nothing you can do. Its part of the game. You just have to keep on grinding and keep your head up.Kenley Jansen got his 37th save to complete the six-hitter. He reached 604 career strikeouts, tying Jim Brewer for most career strikeouts as a reliever in franchise history.Cueto had two wins in three previous starts against the Dodgers this season.

He left Blanton in the game, and then Brandon Crawford flew out to the warning track in right to end the inning.Roberts threw his arms up in celebration. It was the second important decision he made in the game -- the first was taking Hill out after six shutout innings -- and both worked.I wanted to go out there and look in (Blantons) eyes and check on him and see how he felt, Roberts said. He took a lot of energy with those first four hitters, but as I went out there, I just knew he had to stay in the game. Its just the confidence I have in Joe Blanton.Said Crawford: I thought I might have had enough. It got in on me a little bit, so I didnt square it up quite as well as I would have wanted to. I was hoping it might have been enough, but obviously it wasnt.The 31-year-old Turner had 31 career home runs entering this season. He hit 16 in 2015, but before that, hed never hit more than seven in a season. Turner also singled Wednesday.The Giants Angel Pagan had his hitting streak end at 19 games. Los Angeles Adrian Gonzalez singled in the fourth to extend his hitting streak to 17 games.TRAINERS ROOMDodgers: Andre Ethier (broken right tibia) took batting practice and was with the team for the day. Hes looking to return in mid-September. ... Alex Wood (elbow impingement) threw on flat ground. ... Brandon McCarthy (right hip) threw a bullpen session. ... Chase Utley (left foot) came out of the game and was listed as day to day.RYU EYEING POSSIBLE RETURNHyun-Jin Ryu, who has been out the entire season after undergoing left shoulder surgery, is expected to begin a throwing program in a couple of days. The Dodgers have missed Ryu and Clayton Kershaw in the rotation.Hes about ready to pick up a baseball, Roberts said of Ryu. Obviously we dont know how much we can build him up, but its encouraging that Ryu wants to get back in in any capacity he can.UP NEXTDodgers: RHP Ross Stripling (3-4, 4.04 ERA) had his only appearance against the Giants come in his MLB debut earlier this season, a game in which he threw 7 1/3 hitless innings before being removed after 100 pitches.Giants: LHP Matt Moore (7-10, 4.18) is looking for his first win with San Francisco since coming over from the Tampa Bay Rays on Aug. 1.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Dusty Hannahs hasnt experienced all that many shooting slumps in his life, but the Arkansas guard might just have found the answer to his early season shooting struggles by not starting.For a second straight game, the Razorbacks sharp-shooter came off the bench on Tuesday night -- scoring 17 points in 17 minutes as Arkansas (7-1) rallied from a halftime deficit for an 84-72 win over Houston.Hannahs was 6 of 11 from the field and has now hit 5 of 10 3-pointers in his last two games, coming after he was held without a 3-pointer in the two games before that. After leading Arkansas in scoring last season, the senior is now embracing whatever role Razorbacks coach Mike Anderson gives him.I just tried to stop thinking about (missing shots), even though it was impossible to stop thinking about it because I was just watching so many misses happen, Hannahs said. ...

This is a game we could have won, but youve got to play a little bit better defense and get a little more production out of our bigs in a game like this.BIG PICTUREHouston: The Cougars had the guards to run with the Razorbacks, but they had no answers off their bench -- which was outscored 34-14. Houston entered averaging 85.1 points, but it shot only 40 percent (14 of 35) in the second half.Arkansas: The Razorbacks failed in their first true test of the season, falling 87-71 at Minnesota on Nov. 22.
