Brenton Doyle, another Rockies standout with a batting average of 1.000 from one game and an overall slugging percentage (slg) of 1.0, is expected to make significant contributions alongside McMahon. On the pitching front, Jalen Beeks has impressed with a zero earned run average (ERA) and nine strikeouts per nine innings (K9), showcasing the depth of talent within the Rockies' roster.


The Dodgers are not without their own stars. Teoscar Hernández and Frederick Freeman have been pivotal in their lineup.
