"The game began with another early shot taken by the Giants, putting up four runs in the top of the first inning at the expense of right-hander Tyler Glasnow. A Max Muncy two-run shot in the bottom half of the frame kept the Dodgers in the game. Glasnow wouldn't give up another run to San Francisco for the next four innings, ending his day with five innings of work, four earned runs, six hits, four walks, and seven strikeouts."
"Superstar Shohei Ohtani unleashed his 53rd home run of the year to not only further the lead in the sixth inning, but he tied Philadelphia Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber for the most long balls in the National League (and second in MLB). An RBI single by Teoscar Hernández later in the inning extended the advantage, and made things that much more comfortable when Giants first baseman Rafael Devers hit a solo home run the next inning."
Los Angeles defeated San Francisco 7-5, lowering the magic number to three for the National League West. The Dodgers can clinch as early as Monday if they sweep on Sunday and the Padres lose consecutive games. A postseason berth had already been secured during Clayton Kershaw’s final regular-season home start, and with seven games remaining a 12th division title in 13 years is likely. The Giants scored four first-inning runs, but a Max Muncy two-run homer kept the Dodgers close. Tyler Glasnow worked five innings, allowing four earned runs with seven strikeouts. Michael Conforto and Freddie Freeman evened the game; Tommy Edman and Shohei Ohtani hit homers; Teoscar Hernández added an RBI single and Rafael Devers hit a solo homer.
