• Kyle Schwarber hit two home runs, including a 455-foot shot over the right-field pavilion, sparking a decisive late surge.
• Used in relief, Clayton Kershaw surrendered five runs (four earned) over two innings as the eighth inning got away from the Dodgers.
• Dodgers manager Dave Roberts named Roki Sasaki the primary ninth-inning option, noting his availability will be managed by workload.
