The Dodgers beat San Francisco behind Tarik Skubal, who allowed three singles and struck out 10 in seven innings on 75 pitches. Teoscar Hernández and Andy Pages hit solo homers in the second, extending LA’s winning streak over the Giants to six games.
Skubal threw his four-seam fastball 48% of the time, recorded first-pitch strikes against 21 of the 23 batters he faced and generated 21 whiffs. Roki Sasaki pitched the eighth inning, followed by Tanner Scott in the ninth.
Giants starter Yunior Marte took the loss after allowing the two homers. He pitched five innings, struck out four and walked one. The article said San Francisco could tie its California-era mark of eight straight losses to the Dodgers on Sunday if the weekend losing streak continued.
