The Los Angeles Dodgers took home a 5-4 win against the Arizona Diamondbacks on the night when they got their 2025 World Series rings. Alex Freeland had himself a night, going 2-for-3 with a home run and a double. He was the go-ahead run in the bottom of the eighth inning as the $240 million man, Kyle Tucker, hit the RBI single to drive him in.

The Dodgers’ offense exploded during the third inning, scoring four runs after starter Emmet Sheehan allowed two during the first three innings.

The D-Backs’ pitching staff did a good job of limiting the damage other than the fourth inning, getting outs despite the Dodgers making some hard contact. Emmet Sheehan struggled mightily after a first inning that saw him strike out the side.
His fastball velocity dipped dramatically over the next three innings, and so did his stuff, along with his pitch mix. However, the Dodgers’ bullpen looked strong once again, providing lights-out stuff and keeping the team in the game so Tucker could come up clutch.
