First Inning


The opening inning set a cautious tone as both teams remained scoreless. The D-Backs struggled to find their rhythm early on, with Alek Thomas and Blaze Alexander unable to capitalize on opportunities. Meanwhile, the Blue's offense was kept in check by Arizona's starting pitcher.


Second Inning


The second inning saw a significant shift as the Dodgers unleashed their offensive prowess. Scoring four runs off four hits, they took control of the game. Despite efforts from Ketel Marte and Gabriel Moreno to stabilize the defense, Los Angeles managed to exploit gaps effectively.

Fourth Inning


Another pivotal moment came in the fourth inning when Los Angeles added another four runs to their tally. This surge was marked by powerful hitting that left Arizona's bullpen scrambling for answers. Jalen Beeks and Taylor Rashi worked hard but couldn't prevent further damage.


Eighth Inning


As the game progressed into later innings, both teams settled into a defensive battle once more. The Snakes managed five hits throughout but were unable to convert these into runs due to strong pitching from LA's side and some missed opportunities on base paths.
