Recap: Dodgers Bullpen Avoids Total Collapse To Sweep Diamondbacks

The Los Angeles Dodgers finished off their visit to Chase Field by hanging on for a 9-8 win and series sweep of the Arizona Diamondbacks, who had a franchise-worst losing streak extended to 17 games.

The Dodgers took a lead in the third inning on Justin Turner’s RBI single, which was followed by Albert Pujols scooping a three-run homer to left field. The long ball was Pujols’ 673rd of his career and sixth since signing with the Dodgers. Steven Souza Jr.’s RBI triple capped off the five-run inning.

Tony Gonsolin then sparked a rally with his leadoff double in the fourth and along with Chris Taylor, scored two batters later on AJ Pollock’s extra-base hit.
