Kenta Maeda Was ‘100% Ready’ To Remain In Game Against Diamondbacks, But Dave Roberts Felt Julio Urias Gave Dodgers ‘Best Chance’

The Los Angeles Dodgers saw their seven-game winning streak come to an end on Wednesday in a 3-2 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks in extra innings at Chase Field.

While offense was at a premium for both clubs, the Dodgers jumped out to an early 2-0 lead and provided Kenta Maeda all of the run support he needed. The right-hander pitched brilliantly, allowing just one run on two hits with seven strikeouts over five innings of work.

Maeda threw just 70 pitches in those five innings, but saw his outing cut short when Dodgers manager Dave Roberts summoned Julio Urias out of the bullpen for the bottom of the sixth.
