In a thrilling game, the Arizona Diamondbacks secured a comeback victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers with a walk-off home run by rookie Ryan Waldschmidt, who hit a 411-foot blast after Max Kepler’s leadoff walk and Jorge Barrosa’s stolen base. Waldschmidt’s homer, his second in the majors, capped a game where the Dodgers had taken a brief lead. Starting pitcher Merrill Kelly held the Dodgers hitless for five innings, despite leaving with a leg cramp. This win extended the Diamondbacks’ dominance over the Dodgers, marking their fifth consecutive victory against them.
