The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-1, driven by Gavin Lux's three RBIs and Teoscar Hernandez's home run. Dodgers rookie River Ryan left the game after 4 2/3 scoreless innings due to right forearm tightness. Although Pirates rookie Paul Skenes pitched six innings, he allowed a career-high four runs, with Lux's two-run single in the third and Hernandez's fifth-inning home run contributing to the score. The Pirates have now lost six consecutive games, with Ke'Bryan Hayes hitting a late home run for the team. Lux has been on a hitting streak, recording hits in 15 of his last 20 games since the All-Star break. This victory marks the Dodgers' fifth win in their last seven games.
