The comeback snapped Los Angeles' perfect record against National League teams.
Overview
- Colorado edged Los Angeles 4-3 at Coors Field as Troy Johnston ripped a two-run double that gave the Rockies the lead for good.
- Los Angeles struck first when Shohei Ohtani reached on an error and Kyle Tucker hit a two-run homer to open the game.
- Ryan Feltner regrouped after the shaky first and worked 5.2 innings with five strikeouts, five hits allowed, and three runs on two home runs.
- The Dodgers pulled starter Emmet Sheehan at 77 pitches, and the Rockies jumped on reliever Will Klein with a Hunter Goodman double, an Ezequiel Tovar infield hit, and Johnston’s gapper to center.
- Colorado’s bullpen closed it out, with Jaden Hill escaping a bases-loaded eighth and Victor Vodnik recording the ninth-inning save, ending the Dodgers’ 10-0 start against NL clubs and giving the Rockies a needed boost.
