Ezequiel Tovar homered and had three hits, Dakota Hudson allowed only one run and four hits in seven-plus innings, leading the Colorado Rockies to a 4-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. Hudson, with only 17 runs of support entering the game, dominated the Dodgers. Despite jumping out to a lead with three runs in the fourth inning followed by Tovar's solo home run, the Rockies faced a tough Dodgers team. Hudson, with three strikeouts and one walk, kept the Dodgers at bay until the eighth inning when Gavin Lux and Miguel Rojas got on base.
Despite a strong start from Hudson, Jalen Beeks secured the win with his sixth save. The Rockies' recent success continued, having won five of their last seven games, including series against top teams like the Phillies and the Indians. Meanwhile, the Dodgers, coming off a sweep of the Mets, struggled against the Rockies, with Walker Buehler allowing four runs over six innings.
After enduring a nearly nine-hour tarmac delay in New York, the Dodgers faced fatigue and fell short against the Rockies. The team's plane, grounded due to weather and mechanical issues, finally made it to Los Angeles early in the morning. The Rockies' momentum and solid pitching from Hudson proved too much for the Dodgers to overcome, highlighting the challenges of a grueling MLB season.
