Sometimes even the best player in baseball can't carry his team to a win — and Sunday was one of those days for Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers. The superstar went 2-for-4, launching a home run AND ripping a double, but the Arizona Diamondbacks outplayed L.A. everywhere else, handing the Dodgers a 5–3 defeat.
The Dodgers entered Sunday sitting at a whopping 61–36 — the best record in the National League — so losing at home stings a little. But the D-backs (now 49–47) desperately needed this win to stay alive in the wild NL West race. Arizona's offense made just enough happen around Ohtani's heroics to pull off the road win at one of baseball's most electric venues.
With the NL West title seemingly locked up for the Dodgers, games like this are a reminder that NO game is a gimme in the MLB. Arizona is now just 1.0 game out of the second Wild Card spot in the National League, and they'll take every win they can get as the second half of the season heats up!
Sunday was an absolute FEAST of baseball — 15 games across both leagues, and almost every one had something worth talking about. Zack Wheeler of the Phillies was flat-out nasty, striking out 10 batters in 6 innings while shutting out the Tigers 5–0. The Pirates went OFF against the Brewers, winning 14–5 with H. Davis going 2-for-4 with a homer and 3 RBI. And in extra innings drama, the Red Sox edged the Mets 3–2 in 10 innings — powered by Z. Thornton's gem of 7.0 innings, 0 earned runs, and 5 strikeouts. The Texas Rangers also held off the Houston Astros 6–5 in a classic division rivalry game, with B. Nimmo going 3-for-5 with a triple. Sunday was wild, Jacob — buckle up!
