The situation was one that had doomed Gore in his recent past, a moment capable of souring what had been a strong outing. It was the type of at-bat that has had Gore standing in front of his locker afterward wishing he could have a few pitches back. This time, in a 2-1 Dodgers win, Gore threw a first-pitch slider that fooled Ohtani, who flailed his bat at the pitch and hit into an inning-ending double play.
'MacKenzie did great, give us six strong innings,' Martinez said. 'He pitched really well. We got to get the offense going again. ... It's not easy to hold that team over there to just two runs. We just got to hit.'
