"After taking the series opener against the Rockies, the Dodgers were looking for a little something called a winning streak, and they managed to do exactly that. The bats put them ahead early - Teoscar Hernandez homered twice, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman did it once - and Emmet Sheehan continued the trend of starters dominating by going 7 frames and striking out 9. That's now three in a row after a 7-2 victory."
"After a 1st where they went down in order on just 10 pitches, the constant traffic started in the 2nd. Will Smith led the inning off with a double, advanced to third on a deep flyball, and scored on a wild pitch for an early 1-0 lead. Things began again with two outs in the 3rd, as Shohei Ohtani walked, stole second, and Mookie Betts continued to rake, smashing his 17th homer for a 3-0 lead."
The Dodgers secured a 7-2 victory to extend their winning streak to three games. Teoscar Hernandez hit two homers while Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman added solo long balls, providing early offensive support. Will Smith doubled and scored on a wild pitch, Shohei Ohtani walked, stole second and later delivered a run-scoring single, and Andy Pages contributed a run-scoring single. German Marquez started for the opposition but allowed multiple runs before exiting. Emmet Sheehan dominated for Los Angeles, working seven innings with nine strikeouts and finishing a perfect five frames on just 59 pitches before surrendering hits in the sixth.
