The Dodgers picked up a 6-1 victory over the Washington Nationals on Tuesday at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, California.
Rookie starter Bobby Miller earned his second win of the season with six innings of four-hit, one-run ball, striking out four and walking one. Miller, who joined the Dodgers in the first round (29th overall) of the 2020 First-Year Player Draft, is one of the 메이저사이트 organization’s most highly touted prospects. He was called up to the big leagues sooner than expected due to a rash of injuries to starting pitchers, but he has been outstanding, posting a 1.64 ERA in his first three starts.
The bullpen of Victor Gonzalez (one scoreless inning), Justin Buehle (one scoreless inning), and Shelby Miller (one scoreless inning) has kept the team scoreless. At the plate, J.D. Martinez hit his 11th home run of the season. David Peralta chipped in with a multi-hit performance.
The Nats opened the scoring in the second inning on a Corey Dickerson double and a CJ Abrams RBI single.
After hanging with the Nats through four innings, the Dodgers broke the game open with a six-run fifth inning on a Jason Heyward walk, Miguel Vargas shortstop fielder’s choice and third baseman’s throwing error, James Outman RBI single, Mookie Betts RBI single, Freddie Freeman RBI double, Will Smith RBI single, and Martinez three-run homer.
