The Los Angeles Dodgers took care of business on the Fourth of July holiday, successfully completing a three-game sweep over the Pittsburgh Pirates at Dodger Stadium.
In what was a rare win without a home run, the Dodgers still pushed six runs across the plate behind the bats of Yasmani Grandal and Chris Taylor, who each accumulated three RBI in the contest.
The club jumped out to an early 4-2 lead after three innings and later added two insurance runs in the fifth, but it wasn’t without an injury scare earlier in the frame.
Justin Turner, leading off the fifth inning and facing Pirates right-hander Tyler Glasnow, was hit by a pitch that deflected off his shoulder and onto his chin.
