"The D-Backs were stymied for the first six innings thanks to another strong performance by three-time MVP Shohei Ohtani on the mound. He tossed eight strikeouts across six scoreless innings (his deepest outing since Aug. 8, 2023), allowing five hits and no walks. He generated 16 whiffs and maxed out at 101.2 mph, with his fastball averaging 98.2 on the radar gun."
"Rortvedt once again made a great play with one out and two on in the eighth inning. A double steal from Arizona got a runner to third, but fresh off his first long ball in Dodger blue, Rortvedt threw out the runner headed to second, leading to southpaw reliever Alex Vesia to get the punch out to end the inning."
The Diamondbacks defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-4 after a late comeback and walk-off single. Teoscar Hernández opened scoring with his 25th home run, and he added an RBI triple in the sixth. Shohei Ohtani pitched six scoreless innings with eight strikeouts, five hits allowed, no walks, 16 whiffs, a 101.2 mph max, and a 98.2 mph average fastball. Ben Rortvedt hit his first Dodger homer and made a key throw to kill a threat in the eighth. Arizona tied the game after the bullpen surrendered runs in the seventh, and Gerarldo Perdomo delivered the walk-off single off Tanner Scott.
