The Dodgers fell behind early after Justin Wrobleski surrendered another homer to James Wood, Wood would homer again in the 4th to make it 8-0 and that would be it for the Dodgers who looked visibly uncomfortable in the cold. Shohei Ohtani extends his on base streak to 28 games with a single and Andy Pages hits his first homer of the season.

Max Muncie would lea dff the 9th with a double but he was stranded.
