First Inning


The opening inning set a cautious tone for both teams as neither managed to score. The Diamondbacks and Dodgers were evenly matched in their defensive strategies, resulting in no hits or runs from either side.


Fourth Inning


The fourth inning proved decisive for the Snakes as they broke through with two crucial runs. Blaze Alexander's impressive performance was highlighted by his contribution to this scoring surge, showcasing his ability to capitalize on opportunities and drive momentum for Arizona.


Sixth Inning


Continuing their offensive push, the D-Backs added another run in the sixth inning. Gabriel Moreno played an instrumental role during this period, contributing one of Arizona's four total hits and maintaining pressure on Los Angeles’ defense.


Dodgers' Struggles


Throughout all nine innings, Los Angeles struggled offensively against Arizona’s pitching prowess. Despite managing three hits over the course of nine innings, they failed to convert these into any scoring opportunities due largely to Zac Gallen’s commanding presence on the mound who maintained an ERA of 0.0 during his outing.
