Bryan Reynolds hit a two-run homer in the fifth inning and the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 8-4. The Pirates completed their first sweep at Dodger Stadium in nearly 22 years.
Mookie Betts had a two-run homer with two outs in the ninth for the Dodgers, who pounded out 12 hits.
The Dodgers loaded the bases in that inning, but the young Pirates turned their first double play of the game to squash the threat. It was typical of how things went for the Dodgers in the series when they had runners either picked off or thrown out. In the eighth, Taylor singled before Edwin Ríos hit a comebacker on the first pitch to Chris Stratton, who turned and threw to second to start the Pirates' fourth double play.
