Dodgers vs. Diamondbacks: Prediction

Following Jordan Montgomery's shift to the injury list, the Dbacks are yet to finalize a starter who will go up against Dodgers pitcher Gavin Stone. In the fifteen games he has started on the mound, Stone has a 9-2 record. Los Angeles didn't lose a single game in June, with Stone leading the pitching lineup.

The Dodgers' batting lineup is red-hot at the moment. They have been boosted majorly thanks to Freddie Freeman's return to form. He has nine RBIs in his last ten games with an 11-39 record, including five doubles and two home runs.

Shohei Ohtani will be the key again for the Dodgers. The Japanese superstar narrowly missed the NL Player of the Month award in June but has been succeeding since taking the leadoff spot. He has 10 home runs in his last 14 games and will look to go yard on back-to-back nights against Arizona.

Ketel Marte holds the key for the Dbacks with a 12-37 record with four doubles and two home runs in his last 10 appearances. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. has 13 doubles and 11 home runs in an otherwise dull season for the NL pennant-winning team.
