For the first series victory at Dodger Stadium since 2018, the D-backs defeated the Dodgers 6-0.
Wednesday night’s 6-0 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers saw Ryne Nelson pitch five scoreless innings, Christian Walker and Ketel Marte hit home runs, and the Arizona Diamondbacks won a series at Dodger Stadium for the first time since 2018.
Nelson remarked, “We know how good we can play.” “These are the kinds of outcomes we’ll get if we go out there and bring our game.”
The NL West-leading Dodgers, who were outscored 17-9 in the three-game set and lost two straight games for just the second time since April 21, were defeated by the Diamondbacks in the last two games. For the third time this season, they were left out of series finales.
We win two out of three against the team that is leading the NL West, and you have that team. Indeed, we ought to be happy about it, but we mustn’t take anything for granted, stated Torey Luvollo, manager of the Diamondbacks. “We won games because we executed well and remained focused—we did a lot of things right.”
After starter Brandon Hughes was out of the game, Nelson (3-3) took over and gave up five hits, five strikeouts, and three walks.
Mookie Betts, Shohei Ohtani, and Freddie Freeman, the Dodgers’ power trio, combined to go 2 of 11 with three strikeouts.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts stated, “We just got to flush this series.”
