The Dodgers desperately needed a win on Sunday afternoon. Facing the potential of losing 5 consecutive games, they sent out Michael Grove to make his big league debut. But the first 2 innings offered no sign of hope that they were about to break their losing streak.
After Grove allowed a single and walk, a groundball to Gavin Lux went through his legs to open the door. The Phillies would end up putting up 4 unearned runs in the inning and taking a quick lead. The Dodgers would put up a pair of runs over the next 2 innings thanks to a Mookie Betts homer and Max Muncy single.
