US EditionChristian Walker, Yainer Diaz and Jose Altuve Homer in Astros’ 5-1 Win to Complete Sweep of Dodgers
LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, JUL 7 – The Astros outscored the Dodgers 29-6 in the series, powered by home runs from Christian Walker, Yainer Diaz, and Jose Altuve, and strong pitching performances.
- The Houston Astros completed a series sweep against the Los Angeles Dodgers with a 5-1 victory led by home runs from Christian Walker, Yainer Diaz, and Jose Altuve.
- The Astros secured their third straight win by attacking in the sixth inning and capitalizing on back-to-back eighth-inning homers off left-hander Tanner Scott.
- In the eighth inning, the Dodgers put runners on first and second while down 4-1, but Freddie Freeman’s line drive to center field ended their scoring chance.
- Right-Handed pitcher Sheehan, coming back from Tommy John surgery, made a second straight strong start by allowing just a single run and five hits across five innings after being added to the roster in place of Jack Little.
- The Dodgers, facing a surplus of pitching talent with two starters expected back soon, fortified their bullpen ahead of a demanding Colorado trip, but Sheehan might again be asked to step aside.
