On a hot night even in Chase Field, the Los Angeles Dodgers made history when Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, and Freddie Freeman blasted three consecutive home runs, for the first time in franchise history. The Dodgers kept scoring. While Gavin Stone allowed four runs in the first, he pitched well for five innings. Brent Honeywell, Ben Casparius, and Evan Phillips saved the rest of the bullpen. Tommy Edman had his first important hit as a Dodger. The Dodgers swatted the Arizona Diamondbacks 8-to-6. The Dodgers lead both the San Diego Padres and the Arizona Diamondbacks by six games in the National League Western Division.

Since 1977, I have been an avid Dodger fan. In high school, I became my school's baseball statistician and vowed to have a career in baseball. After I graduated from Pasadena City College, I started writing about my favorite team. In August 2001, I was featured in Her Blue Haven by Bill Plaschke. I was a freelance writer for Major League Baseball Advanced Media from 2001 to 2018. This website provides you a professional outlook on the Los Angeles Dodgers.
