Max Muncy homered twice and Joey Gallo hit a three-run shot to lead the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 6-3 victory over the visiting San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night.

Muncy went 3-for-4 and scored three times and Tyler Anderson pitched seven innings as Los Angeles (93-42) beat the Giants for the ninth time in the past 10 meetings.

Trea Turner added two hits and a stolen base for the Dodgers, who have won three of their past four following a three-game slide.

Lewis Brinson and Brandon Crawford homered for the Giants (65-69), who had a four-game winning streak halted. Brinson has three homers in the first two games of the series.

Anderson (14-3) picked up his first win since Aug. 7 after going 0-2 over his previous four starts. He allowed three runs and eight hits and struck out three without issuing a walk.

Chris Martin struck out two in a perfect eighth and Craig Kimbrel worked a flawless ninth for his 22nd save.

Jarlin Garcia (1-4), the second of five San Francisco pitchers, allowed five runs and four hits over 1 2/3 innings.

Brinson homered to left on Anderson's first pitch of the game before the Dodgers foiled San Francisco's bullpen-by-committee plan with three runs in the second.

John Brebbia pitched the first for the Giants before the left-handed Garcia entered in the second to face left-handed-hitting Muncy, who doubled to right. After Justin Turner walked, left-handed slugger Gallo smashed a 3-1 fastball over the wall in right-center to give the Dodgers a 3-1 lead.

Gallo cracked his bat with the 408-foot blast -- his fourth homer with Los Angeles and his 16th of the season.

In the third inning, Garcia served up a two-run homer to Muncy with two outs before being pulled.

San Francisco pulled within 5-3 in the sixth when Crawford hit a two-run homer just inside the right field foul pole. It was Crawford's eighth blast of the season.

Muncy led off the bottom of the inning with an opposite-field homer to left off Dominic Leone, his 18th homer of the year, as the Dodgers improved to 11-4 against the Giants this season.
