Dodgers sweep Pirates, extend six-game streak

Blake Snell dominated the Pirates, tossing six scoreless innings with six strikeouts as the Dodgers extended their winning streak to six games. The offense supported him with RBI by Alek Thomas and Hunter Feduccia, while Kyle Tucker contributed after being revived in a new role replacing Andy Pages, who is out with a fractured hand. Ohtani sparked the Dodgers early with a leadoff walk, helping set the tone in a day the bullpen finished off the 4-0 win. The Dodgers’ continued success comes as their rotation, including Yamamoto and Skubal alongside Snell, has delivered strong outings during this hot stretch. The victory completed a series sweep over the Pirates, continuing a favorable run after earlier stumbles and maintaining momentum heading into a two-week stretch. Thomas, Feduccia, and Tucker have emerged as key contributors from the lower part of the lineup, helping the Dodgers secure offensive support as Snell continues to pitch at a high level.
