The Dodgers defeated the Pirates 12-3, overcoming an early two-run deficit with a dominant 10-run seventh inning—their highest single-inning score since June 2021. Freddie Freeman marked his 2,500th career hit during this inning, contributing to the team’s offensive surge. Starter Eric Lauer allowed only two runs over 5 ⅔ innings, helping the Dodgers improve to 43-24 and 19-6 in their last 25 games. Meanwhile, Will Smith’s neck stiffness raises concerns about his availability, as the team prepares to face Jared Jones on Wednesday.
