(AP) - David DeJesus drew a bases-loaded walk in the bottom of the 11th inning to lift the Chicago Cubs to a 4-3 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday.

The win came after the teams waited out a 2-hour, 41-minute rain delay, and a ninth-inning comeback by the Cubs.

Darwin Barney led off the 11th with a double.

Wellington Castillo was intentionally walked and pinch-hitter Jeff Samardzija was hit by a pitch to load the bases.

On a 3-2 pitch, DeJesus drew the game-winning walk.

With the Cubs trailing 3-2 in the bottom of the ninth, pinch-hitter Ian Stewart singled, and Dodgers closer Javy Guerra walked David DeJesus.

Tony Campana hit a tying double, but DeJesus, who would have been the winning run, was thrown out at home. It was Guerra's third blown save in 11 chances.

Rafael Dolis (2-2) got the win, while Jamey Wright (1-2) took the loss.
