The Dodgers won their fifth series in their last six and have gone six series in a row without dropping one after an 8-7 win against the Pirates today. It was quite the unexpected win though, mainly because the bullpen was tasked with all nine innings, but they pulled through thanks to the bats staying hot.

About five minutes before the game was scheduled to start, it was announced that Dennis Santana would not be making his debut as a starter in the majors and that Daniel Hudson would start instead.
