Edmundo Sosa entered in the sixth inning for Brandon Marsh and hit a two-run home run off reliever Tanner Scott to give the Phillies a 4-3 lead. The Dodgers had 51,794 fans at Dodger Stadium but failed to regain momentum after the eighth inning. Roki Sasaki started for Philadelphia, allowing three hits and one earned run over 5⅓ innings. Sasaki reached 100 mph for the first time this season on pitches to J.T. Realmuto (100.4 mph) and Kyle Schwarber (100.1 mph), with his four-seam, slider, and splitter averaging at least 1.2 mph above his yearly average. His slider and splitter were in the zone less than 45% of the time and his fastball hit the strike zone 55%, leading to command concerns and a manager warning from Dave Roberts.
