The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Miami Marlins 3-1, extending their winning streak to six games and completing an unbeaten homestand. The key moment in the game was a two-run home run by Teoscar Hernández in the sixth inning, which drove in all three runs for the Dodgers.
During this impressive homestand, Los Angeles’ starting rotation has been particularly strong, with five starters going at least six innings and posting a 2.33 ERA with 31 strikeouts and only four walks. Gavin Stone pitched seven innings, giving up just one run on six hits with four strikeouts.
The Marlins were not able to keep up with the Dodgers’ offense, with Bryan De La Cruz’s solo home run in the fourth inning being their only run scored. Injuries continue to impact Miami, with RHP Edward Cabrera being placed on the injured list for the second time this season and LHP Braxton Garrett being reinstated from the IL to start on Sunday against Philadelphia.
Up next for Miami is a three-game series against the Philadelphia Phillies, with LHP Trevor Rogers starting on Friday. For Los Angeles, they will travel to San Diego to take on the Padres for a three-game series, with RHP Tyler Glasnow starting for them.
