The game began with both teams locked tightly, neither managing to break through in the first couple of innings—thanks to some solid pitching on both sides.

After Ezequiel Tovar singled to left, Ryan McMahon walked, setting the stage for Kris Bryant, who singled to left, driving in Tovar for the first run of the game. Then, Brendan Rodgers singled to center, and thanks to a fielding error by Dodgers' center fielder Andy Pages, both McMahon and Bryant raced home, pushing the score to 3-0.But the Rockies weren't done just yet. Ezequiel Tovar extended the lead in the 4th inning with a solo homer to center, clearing 410 feet with ease. Tovar's home run was the highlight of the night, and boy, did it feel good to see one of our own launching it into the LA night!
