DN Postgame - Bobby Miller Growing Into an Ace, Injury Updates, LA Beats Brew Crew
Make it nine in a row for the Dodgers! It was a pitcher’s duel early in the game as Bobby Miller and Adrian Houser of the Brewers mostly exchanged zeroes. Then the LA offense exploded for five runs in the sixth inning to but the game firmly out of reach for the central leading Milwaukee club.Coming off Monday’s day off, the bat picked up right where they left off with some clutch hitting starting with the return of J.D. Martinez who gave the Dodgers their first lead of the night with an RBI double in the sixth. Kiké Hernandez followed with the go-ahead blow with a two run double and that was all the offense the club would need to.Rookie right-hander Bobby Miller was electric, rebounding after allowing a first inning run to toss 6 innings, allowing just one run on one hit. He picked up win number 7 on the season. Ryan Yarbrough allowed one run over the final three innings to pick up his first career save.Our Doug McKain is breaking down the game on another edition of the Dodgers Nation Postgame Show
