Mookie Betts drives in the go-ahead run in the eighth inning as the Los Angeles Dodgers defeat the Colorado Rockies 4-3 in Wednesday night’s series finale. The game is tied 3-3 when Betts delivers a clutch two-strike single to center, ending a nine-pitch at-bat against Rockies reliever Antonio Senzatela (8-1). The hit scores Tommy Edman, who reached base on a single earlier, advanced to third on Freddie Freeman’s double, and later comes home on Betts’ RBI.
Following the Dodgers’ go-ahead strike, the late rally holds. Tanner Scott preserves the win for Los Angeles after the tie is broken in the eighth, sealing the one-run outcome. Multiple reports describe the Dodgers’ late scoring as a string of singles in the eighth inning, which ultimately decides the series, with all three games in the set determined by a single run.
