Giants 6, Dodgers 2: Other team hits, the Dodgers don't again - Dodgers Digest
"Things started promisingly against Adrian Houser, as Shohei Ohtani led off with a single, Freddie Freeman added a single with one out, and Kyle Tucker got hit by a pitch to load things up. then hit a ball hard to right, but it was caught on the track for only a sac fly to make it 1-0 Dodgers. That was all they would get, because of course."
"Yoshinobu Yamamoto seemed to be absolutely cruising, retiring the first eight Giants hitters he faced ... then backup catcher and nine-hole hitter Eric Haase hit a homer to tie the game at 1-1. After a quiet 2nd for Houser, Shohei Ohtani led off the 3rd with his seventh homer to make it 2-1 Dodgers. On the other side, Yamamoto resumed, giving up only a single in the next seven batters. However, it was the bottom of the order again in the 5th, with Harrison Bader and Haase going back-to-back to make it 3-2 Giants."
"Yamamoto then retired the next four, but in the 7th he ran into trouble with a lead-off double and a single to corner things. After a lineout, Blake Treinen entered and a safety squeeze by Drew Gilbert led to an infield single and a run when Freddie Freeman couldn't bend over. After Treinen got the second out, Jung-Hoo Lee doubled to plate both runners to make it 6-2 Giants. That was basically game."
"It was game because the offense was the offense. A quiet 4th was followed by a 5th where a walk was erased by a double play, Houser sandwiched a walk between two outs in the 6th, and then their pen entered. They kept the Dodgers scoreless"
Shohei Ohtani led off with a single and Freddie Freeman added a single, with Kyle Tucker hit by a pitch to load the bases.

Yamamoto later allowed a lead-off double and a single in the seventh, and Blake Treinen entered. A safety squeeze produced an infield single and a run, and Jung-Hoo Lee doubled to plate two more, making it 6-2.
