Kyle Tucker delivered a breakout performance, going 3-for-3 with a sacrifice fly, triple and grand slam to drive in five runs as the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Miami Marlins 6-2 for their eighth consecutive victory. Blake Snell allowed one run on four hits with eight strikeouts over 5 2/3 innings, while Max Muncy added three hits and a walk to support the Dodgers’ pitching. Miami lost its fourth straight game and seventh in its last eight, despite four hits from Otto Lopez. The Dodgers also welcomed top prospect Josue De Paula in his major league debut after Shohei Ohtani was placed on the injured list with right biceps inflammation.
