The Los Angeles Dodgers salvaged a two-game series with the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday and snapped a three-game losing streak in the process. Moreover, it was the club’s third win in the last four meetings against their National League West rival.
Solid pitching performances dominated the early portion of the game, as Patrick Corbin and Alex Wood each logged five innings of one-run ball. The Dodgers, however, would score three runs in the sixth inning in a very unorthodox way.
After loading the bases against Diamondbacks reliever Fernando Salas, Kyle Farmer pushed the first run across with a sacrifice fly.
