The Los Angeles Dodgers erased an early deficit and after failing to maintain their own lead, pulled ahead again in the eighth inning for a 3-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks for a third straight victory. Rangel Ravelo delivered the would-be walk-off hit.
Clayton Kershaw had a scoreless streak of 30 innings in Spring Training snapped when David Peralta opened the game with a home run to right field. Kershaw settled in from there, retiring six of the next seven batters faced.
The only to reach during that stretch was Josh VanMeter on Chris Taylor’s throwing error in the second inning.
