First Inning


Both teams started cautiously, with neither side managing to score. The Dodgers had no hits and no runs in this inning, setting an early tone of defensive play from both sides.


Fourth Inning


The game took a decisive turn during the fourth inning when the D-Backs broke through with two runs off two hits. This pivotal moment shifted momentum in favor of Arizona and put pressure on Los Angeles to respond.


Sixth Inning


Arizona extended their lead by adding another run in the sixth inning through two more hits. This increased their advantage to three runs and further challenged the Dodgers' ability to mount a comeback.


Dodgers' Performance


Throughout nine innings, Los Angeles managed only three hits without scoring any runs. Mookie Betts was one of few bright spots for his team but could not convert opportunities into points. On the mound, Blake Snell pitched for over five innings but allowed all three earned runs that ultimately decided the game.


Diamondbacks' Defense


Arizona's pitching staff effectively contained Los Angeles’ offense throughout all nine innings by allowing just three hits overall—demonstrating strong control over key moments within each frame played out during this contest between these divisional rivals.
