Dodgers Start Strong in the 1st
What a way to kick things off, Dodgers fans!
Right from the top of the 1st inning, Tommy Edman sent the ball soaring into right center with a leadoff homer measuring 398 feet! This put us ahead early with a 1-0 lead over the Rangers. Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman followed with strikes, and Teoscar Hernández flied out, but Edman's bomb was enough to keep our spirits high. 
Pitchers Dominate
It was a night for pitchers to shine. Our very own Tanner Scott kept the Rangers at bay, registering numerous strikeouts and preventing them from scoring despite intense pressure. Texas had their moments, but our defense was on point, with great plays and quick reflexes shutting down any attempt by the Rangers to level the scores.Late Inning Score Boost
Everything came to fruition in the 9th inning, ensuring we secured the win. Tommy Edman reached on an infield single and capitalized on a throwing error that put him on second base. Even with two outs, he showed his speed, moving to third on a groundout. Freddie Freeman was intentionally walked, and Teoscar Hernández promptly singled to right field, allowing Edman to score the much-needed second run.
Will Smith added a third run with a clutch sacrifice fly to center. It was a strategic masterclass that finished the game with a 3-0 victory for the Dodgers! 
Great job, Dodgers! Let's keep the momentum rolling!
