PHOENIX — The Los Angeles Dodgers are developing an important skill early on this season: Scoring runs with two outs in an inning.
In a 5-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday, all of the Dodgers’ runs came in such situations, giving the team just enough breathing room to survive some late-game scrambling in the bullpen.
Chris Taylor opened the scoring with an RBI single in the second. The Dodgers extended their lead in the third on an Arizona error and J.D. Martinez double.
