Shohei Ohtani secured the victory in the 10th inning with an infield single, bringing home the go-ahead run after the Diamondbacks tied the game thanks to a pair of triples from Geraldo Perdomo and Corbin Carroll in the ninth.

Arizona's Brandon Pfaadt held his own against the Dodgers throughout the game, striking out two over seven innings and maintaining a 1.32 ERA since returning from Triple-A Reno.",
