Colorado RockiesvsLos Angeles Dodgers
COL 3/LAD 4
Things to say
The Dodgers beat the Rockies 4-3 at Dodger Stadium.
01
opener
Dodgers squeaked one out, 4-3. Classic one-run game where Colorado hung around way longer than they should've. Came down to the last couple innings.
02
key player
Heart of the order did the damage again for LA. When those guys get on base, the Rockies pitching just has no answer.
03
hot take
Honestly the Rockies playing them tight tells you more about LA's bullpen than anything. That was closer than a 61-33 team should let it get.
04
deep cut
Colorado's 38-56 and still grinding out one-run road games in LA. Nobody talks about it, but they don't roll over.
05
exit
Anyway, Dodgers just keep piling up wins. Curious if Colorado can steal one before this series is over.
The recap
The Dodgers squeaked one out at home, edging the Rockies 4-3 in a game that stayed tight all the way to the last out. Colorado hung around and made LA sweat, but the heart of the order came through when it mattered and the bullpen slammed the door on the one-run lead.
Nothing flashy, just a workmanlike win that keeps the Dodgers rolling at 61-33 and comfortably atop the division. The Rockies drop to 38-56 and head home with another close one that got away.
