In a highly-anticipated matchup, the Dodgers were defeated by the Pirates 3-0, marking a continuation of their recent struggles. Paul Skenes dominated with 6.1 shutout innings, while Yoshinobu Yamamoto battled command issues, allowing three runs in five innings. The Pirates capitalized on early mistakes and took a decisive lead, showcasing their offensive strength. Despite some offensive threats from the Dodgers, they could not capitalize, and Skenes effectively kept them in check, leading to the decisive victory for Pittsburgh.
The pitcher's duel did not disappoint as both pitchers turned in solid outings, but it was Skenes who took it to the next step and completely shut down L.A.
Yamamoto's night came to an end after that frame, having gone five innings with three runs allowed on five hits, but only one of the runs was earned.
