PITTSBURGH -- Clayton Kershaw cant catch a break in the win column. Its a sacrifice he can accept so long as the Los Angeles Dodgers find other ways to get it done. Juan Uribe singled home Andre Ethier in the top of the 11th inning and the Dodgers edged the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-3 on Saturday. Ethier doubled off Vin Mazzaro (3-1) leading off the 11th then raced home when Uribes chopper went over the head of third baseman Pedro Alvarez. Nick Punto drove in Uribe with a double to the gap one batter later to provide some insurance. Peter Moylan (1-0) picked up the win after escaping a bases-loaded jam in the 10th. Brandon League, who lost his job as the closer to Kenley Jansen this week, managed the final three outs for his 14th save. Jansen surrendered a solo homer to Pittsburghs Travis Snider in the ninth, but the Dodgers recovered to improve to 13-2 in their last 15 games against the Pirates. "Right now, every win is good," Los Angeles manager Don Mattingly said. "Its what weve been kind of talking about, staying afloat and treading water until we can put together some semblance of a winning streak." Though Jansen blew the save, there is no plan to switch back to League. "Kenley is throwing good," Mattingly said. "I dont want to start that up again." Kershaw scattered three hits over seven innings while lowering his ERA to a National League-leading 1.84, but failed to pick up his first win in three weeks when the Dodgers bullpen faltered. Kershaws record remains stalled at 5-4 even though hes allowed three earned runs or fewer 14 of his 15 starts this season. "You can control what you can control," Kershaw said. "The main thing is giving your team a chance to win the game and we were able to win today." Ethier finished 3 for 5 with an RBI and Skip Schumaker and Mark Ellis also drove in runs for Los Angeles, which won for just the fourth time in its last 16 road games. "Its a little disappointing that he didnt get the win because he deserved it," Ethier said of Kershaw. "When you see them score a run in ninth, its a little sickening feeling that one got away from him." Pittsburghs Brandon Cumpton allowed three runs on seven hits in five-plus innings during his major league debut. He struck out five of the first six batters he faced but faded as the game wore on. The Pirates had a chance to win it in the 10th when Neil Walker smacked a ball down the right-field line with Russell Martin on first. Los Angeles rookie right-fielder Yaisel Puig had trouble with the ball, but Martin was held at third even as Puigs throw went well up the third-base line. The Dodgers intentionally walked Pedro Alvarez and Mike McKenry flew out to right to extend the game. League, who has blown four saves this season, nearly made it five. The Pirates put runners on second and third in the 11th, but Andrew McCutchen grounded out and Gaby Sanchez hit a sinking liner to left that Schumaker tracked down. Even with the victory, the underachieving Dodgers remain nine games under .500 (29-38) as the season nears its midway point. "Weve dug ourselves such a big hole that weve got to put some winning streaks together," Kershaw said. "We can talk about it all day but weve got to start doing it." Kershaw is the third Cy Young winner the Pirates have faced in five days. Pittsburgh beat San Franciscos Tim Lincecum and Barry Zito on Tuesday and Wednesday, knocking both around in the process. Not this time. The Pirates went up 1-0 early when Alex Presley doubled leading off and then scored on a fielders choice. That would be about it. The Pirates put two runners on in the third and sixth innings, but couldnt scratch out a run, giving the Dodgers enough time to figure out Cumpton. The 24-year-old appeared immune to the nerves early in his big league debut, striking out the side in the first. He retired the first eight batters he faced before walking Kershaw in the third. The third trip through the lineup, however, proved problematic. Schumaker drove in A.J. Ellis in the fifth to tie the game before Cumpton unraveled in the sixth. Adrian Gonzalez led off with a double and moved to third on Hanley Ramirezs single. Ethier drove home Gonzalez and Mark Ellis hit a sacrifice fly off reliever Justin Wilson to put the Dodgers up 2-0. Pittsburgh closed within a run in the eighth on an RBI single by Walker, but reliever Paco Rodriguez got Alvarez to ground out meekly to first to end the threat. Jensen came on in the ninth and blew his first save since inheriting the closers job from League when Snider took a 2-2 fastball and put it well into the centre-field seats for his third homer of the year. League allowed infield singles to Snider and Jordy Mercer in the 11th but survived. NOTES: Los Angeles reliever J.P.
