00:00Will Smith isn't starting on his bobblehead night.
00:03He did not want Will Smith playing in four straight,
00:05and it was important for him to be catching for Yoshinobu last night, guys.
00:09Well, that means Will's going to be well-rested
00:11to catch the ceremonial first pitch on his bobblehead night,
00:14which commemorates the final out of the 2024 World Series.
00:19Dodger starter tonight, the right-hander Dustin May is out there.
00:22One in four and eight starts, including a loss to the Diamondbacks.
00:25That was May 10th at Chase Field.
00:26Yeah, we just saw him at Chase Field.
00:28He was up against Corbin Burns in that game as well.
00:30He didn't pitch poorly, gave up two earned runs on seven hits over six and two-thirds,
00:34but Corbin Burns and Ryan Nelson were better.
00:37And it's a leadoff walk for Corbin Carroll.
00:3918th walk of the year for Dustin May.
00:42Eight of those have been to lead off an inning.
00:44Quetel Marte this year against the Dodgers,
00:47doing what Quetel Marte always seems to do against the Dodgers.
00:51That cleans up the leadoff walk, 4-6-3 for the twin kill,
00:56and there are two out, and the bases are empty.
00:58Gabriel Miranda, the catcher, has been a terror this season.
01:03Strikes out, swinging 97 from Dustin May, and a K to Kappa, scoreless first.
01:10Right-hander Corbin Burns, a 2-5-6 ERA in his first season with the Diamondbacks.
01:15He's won his last three starts.
01:16His walk total, a little bit high, 22 walks in just over 45 innings of work,
01:21but a lot of that came back in those first six starts of the year
01:24where he just wasn't quite fine enough with his command.
01:27He's been so much better the last two games.
01:30Well, he better be because the big three is coming up.
01:32Ohtani, Betts, and Freeman has started off for L.A., and here is Shohei.
01:36Swing and a miss.
01:37Up count Ohtani with a nasty curveball.
01:39One up, one down here for the D-back right-hander.
01:42Here's Mookie Betts, three for nine in the series.
01:45Swung on, line drive to right field.
01:47Carroll there and sets his feet, makes the catch.
01:50And now two down for Freddie Freeman.
01:53Two outs, nobody on, no score.
01:54First pitch swings, a gentle ground ball to first.
01:57Naylor has it and goes to the bag himself.
01:59It's a 1-2-3 inning for Corbin Burns.
02:02Two fiery competitors facing off right here, Dustin May and Josh Naylor.
02:06Both of them wear their emotions on their sleeve.
02:08Swing and a miss, strike three.
02:10The second strikeout for Dustin May.
02:12This one comes on a sweeper.
02:14One away in the top of the second.
02:16Suarez swings, hits a soft line drive into center field.
02:18That's a base hit.
02:19This guy did one far to the left of Betts.
02:21No chance he could catch it.
02:23And the first hit of the game belongs to the D-back.
02:25So one out, one on for Arizona.
02:28One-two pitch.
02:28Swung on and miss, strike three.
02:30Got him with a sweeper.
02:31Second strikeout this inning.
02:33Third of the game so far for Dustin May.
02:35And there are two down.
02:37Well, late swing.
02:38He struck him out.
02:39Good looking sweeper.
02:40He strikes out three.
02:42Gives up a single.
02:43And all three strikeouts come on the sweeper.
02:45Now four strikeouts in the game for Dustin May through two innings.
02:48It's a one-two-three.
02:50Bottom of the second.
02:51Nineteen pitches thrown in total so far for Corbin Burns.
02:55And we move into the third inning scoreless between the D-backs and the Dodgers.
02:58One out, bottom of the order.
02:59Tim Tawa.
03:00Swung on, hit in the air to center field.
03:02It's got some length to it.
03:04Going back and on the warning track is Edmund.
03:07And he reaches up and makes the catch right up against the wall.
03:11Well, he had it measured perfectly.
03:13He tracks this ball really well.
03:14He coils his legs to get ready for a big-time jump and then realizes as the ball's coming down,
03:20he's not going to need all of it.
03:21Now the second time through for May, Corbin Carroll let off the game with a walk.
03:26There's a ground ball to first base, backhanded by Freeman.
03:29He'll sprint to the back, steps on it, and that takes care of that.
03:32A one-two-three.
03:34Corbin Burns making short work in this Dodger lineup.
03:37It's been as efficient as one can be out there.
03:39Swing and a miss struck him out.
03:41That's what it's like facing a former Cy Young winner.
03:45How about Corbin Burns?
03:47Pitches per inning for Corbin so far.
03:49Ten, nine, and eight.
03:50Cattell ahead 2-0.
03:52May has four strikeouts so far.
03:54He's walked one.
03:55Give it up just one hit.
03:56The Suarez single in the second.
03:57It's the game's only hit so far for either side.
04:00Marte hits a high fly ball out to right field, and there it goes.
04:05Cattell Marte way out of here.
04:08It's Cattell Marte's seventh home run this season.
04:11Four of those seven have come against the Dodgers.
04:15425 feet.
04:16That was way up in the bleachers.
04:18Marte knew it.
04:19And better than that, May knew it.
04:21Corbin Burns, the first time through the lineup, three scoreless innings on just 27 pitches.
04:28Ohtani hard hit grounded to second.
04:30Cattell snatches it and throws to first in time.
04:33One up and one down.
04:34Burns has now started his outing by retiring ten Dodgers in a row.
04:38Rookie reaches out and lifts a lazy fly to left center.
04:41Alec Thomas drifting over that way.
04:4311 up, 11 down for Corbin Burns.
04:45Two down here in the fourth inning, and that brings up first baseman Freddie Freeman.
04:482-1 pitch.
04:49That's on the ground into center field, a base hit, right at second base.
04:53Well, the Dodgers get their first base runner.
04:55They get their first base hit, and it's Freddie Freeman who came into the game hitting 371.
04:59He's the guy who finds a way.
05:01Swing and a miss.
05:02He struck him out.
05:03It's the third strikeout of the night for Burns, and the inning comes to a close.
05:07The Dodgers, a two-out single and nothing more.
05:09Three pitches, three strikes.
05:11One out for Dustin May here in the fifth.
05:13Got drilled on the knee and goes straight down.
05:17Took it right off the kneecap.
05:19Now on his feet and slowly walking down towards first base.
05:23He'll be intercepted by Ryan DiPanfilo and Tori Lovello, and he is going to stay in this game.
05:28Corbin Carroll up for the third time.
05:30He's 0-for-1 with a walk.
05:32Two down, one up.
05:34Jack Swing.
05:34Did he go?
05:35Oh, yes, he did.
05:37As the fastball strikes out Corbin Carroll.
05:40Seven strikeouts for Dustin May.
05:42Ball four, and Muncie works a walk with one out.
05:46Here comes Tommy Edmund.
05:47And Edmund swings and misses.
05:49And he's down on strikes.
05:51Four strikeouts for Corbin Burns tonight, all of them swinging.
05:55And with two outs and a man at first, here is the rookie rushing.
05:59Swing and a miss.
06:00Got him with a curve once again, and the inning is over.
06:03Back-to-back strikeouts by Corbin.
06:05He's got five, and we move on to the sixth inning.
06:08An 0-2 pitch.
06:10Swing and a miss.
06:10Strike three.
06:11Struck him out with a sweeper.
06:13Strikeout number eight for May.
06:16Back-to-back.
06:17One-out singles for the Diamondbacks.
06:18Settler on the corners now for Tino Suarez.
06:22And that's going to prompt a mound visit from pitching coach Mark Breyer.
06:26Against Suarez, two for two with two singles.
06:28D-Bex with a 1-0 lead.
06:30We're in the sixth inning.
06:31Freddie giving it a look.
06:32Rojas has a better angle on it.
06:34Rojas and foul.
06:34Ground will make the catch on the warning track.
06:37Throw comes to the plate on one hop.
06:39And that holds Moreno at third.
06:41Terrific play by Miguel Rojas.
06:43And there are two men out.
06:45Pavin Smith left-handed hitting D-8.
06:47Swung on ground ball to third.
06:48Muncie backhand.
06:49Sets his feet.
06:51Throws to first in time to get in.
06:53Dustin May's night is over.
06:54He'll go six innings.
06:56One run, five hits.
06:57Match to season high with eight strikeouts.
06:59The Dodgers have the leadoff man on in the sixth.
07:03Ohtani facing Burns.
07:04He's 0-2 tonight.
07:05High in the air and deep to right.
07:08Corbin at the wall and he's got it.
07:12It stayed in the yard.
07:14Just enough ballpark for the Diamondbacks that time.
07:17And Ohtani is 0-3.
07:19And that's just a little too much launch.
07:20Here now is Mookie Betts.
07:22And Betts swings.
07:23Hits a ground ball through the hole.
07:24Let's tie it a base.
07:25A one-out single for Betts.
07:27And the Dodgers have the tying run and scoring position
07:30with Rojas down at second.
07:32Bottom of the sixth.
07:32Two on, one out.
07:34Freeman swings and misses.
07:36And Burns stuck him out.
07:37Well done by Burns.
07:38He moved it in and out.
07:40Still runners at first and second for the Dodgers.
07:42But here is Teoscar Hernandez.
07:45Burns has a seemingly very good game plan against Hernandez.
07:48But still, if he fails to execute or hangs a pitch,
07:51Hernandez has the type of power.
07:52Going to turn it into a three-run home run.
07:54He swings.
07:55It's a high fly ball to center and deep.
07:57This ball headed back toward the wall.
07:59It is gone.
08:01A three-run home run.
08:04Teoscar Hernandez.
08:05He knew the risks of missing a pitch.
08:09And Hernandez made him pay with his tenth low run of the season.
08:12The leadoff D-back.
08:130 for 2 with a strikeout and a walk.
08:16That's a base hit for Corbin.
08:18Perdomo will take a big turn and head for third.
08:21And he's in there standing up.
08:23On the two-out single from Corbin Carroll.
08:25Tying runs on base for Arizona.
08:28First and third.
08:29Two out.
08:29Luke Trevino comes on to face the leader of the Diamondback offense,
08:34Cattell Marte.
08:35A bouncer to the right side.
08:37Rojas to Freeman.
08:39Trevino does the job.
08:41Corbin Burns still in there.
08:42So this is a third look for Muncie tonight.
08:45High hop at first for Naylor.
08:47Burns hustles over.
08:48And that's one away.
08:50And he gets Edmond to chase a curveball.
08:53Seven strikeouts for Corbin.
08:54And there are two outs of the Dodgers' seventh.
08:56Pitch from Burns.
08:58Check swing.
08:59Went around.
09:00He is down on strikes.
09:01The hat trick for rushing.
09:02And that's seven strong innings from Corbin Burns here in Dodger Stadium.
09:08He strikes out eight.
09:09Otani is 0 for 3 tonight.
09:12His last time up.
09:13He blew out to deep right field.
09:15Just in front of the walls.
09:18Strike three swinging.
09:20Eight him up.
09:20The fastball at 95 on the inside corner.
09:23Mookie's turn.
09:24Singled and scored on Teo's homer in the sixth.
09:28Fights this one to center field.
09:30A little drop for a hit.
09:32Mookie's second of the game.
09:34And fifth of the series.
09:36Freddie at the plate.
09:38Raymond skies it to right center.
09:41Corbin backing up near the warning track.
09:43And that's going to do it for the Dodgers here.
09:45Tanner Scott for a second straight night.
09:47Trying to get back on the right track.
09:50Britchick hits it hard to left.
09:52But right at Andy Pajos.
09:54One out.
09:55Switch hitter Geraldo Perdomo.
09:57Yes he did.
10:00That's three.
10:01Two gone.
10:02One more out to go.
10:04Fourteenth pitch of the inning.
10:06The seventh to Lourdes Gurriel.
10:08Sits him down.
10:10It ends the series.
10:12Win for L.A.
10:13Two strikeouts for Scott as he picks up the save.
10:17Dustin May will get the win out of this.
10:19And the Dodgers win the ball game.
10:20Three to one.
10:22To go to 31 and 19 on the season.
