AT THE PLATE: The Dodgers hung seven runs on former Dodger Ricky Nolasco in the third inning through a series of extra-base hits and patient at-bats. Enrique Hernandez hit a run-scoring triple, continuing his string of strong performances against right-handed pitchers. After run-scoring singles by Corey Seager and Yasiel Puig, Logan Forsythe walked with the bases loaded and Utley drove in a run with a single. Hernandez capped the flurry with another run-scoring hit.
ON THE MOUND: Ross Stripling rebounded from a shaky beginning to his relief outing — giving up a walk and a single to the first batters he faced — by retiring the next four batters.
