Venue: Chase Field — Phoenix, Arizona
First Pitch: 9:40 PM ET / 6:40 PM MT
Surface: Retractable Roof (Grass)
Broadcast: SportsNet LA / Bally Sports Arizona
Weather Update — Chase Field
Chase Field features a retractable roof, and with early‑June desert heat, the roof is expected to be closed.
Outside Conditions:
Temperature: 101–104°F
Humidity: 12%
Wind: 6–10 mph
Roof: Closed
Impact: A closed roof creates a neutral‑to‑slightly hitter‑friendly environment. The ball carries well in the dry indoor air, but not as much as with the roof open.
Injury Report
Los Angeles Dodgers
SP Walker Buehler — IL (elbow)
SS Gavin Lux — IL (knee)
RP Brusdar Graterol — IL (shoulder)
OF Jason Heyward — Day‑to‑day (hamstring)
Impact: Dodgers’ depth remains strong, but bullpen is thinner without Graterol. Lineup still elite even without Lux.
Arizona Diamondbacks
OF Corbin Carroll — IL (shoulder)
SP Merrill Kelly — IL (lat)
RP Kevin Ginkel — IL (forearm)
C Gabriel Moreno — Day‑to‑day (hand)
Impact: Arizona’s offense loses its spark without Carroll. Rotation depth tested without Kelly.
Starting Pitching Matchup
Los Angeles — LHP Eric Lauer (Projected: 4–2, 4.11 ERA, 1.32 WHIP)
Profile:
Fastball 92–94 mph
Relies on cutter/slider mix
Fly‑ball tendencies can be dangerous in Chase Field
Struggles vs. right‑handed power (.268 avg allowed)
Matchup Notes: Arizona’s right‑handed bats (Walker, Marte, Suárez) match up well with Lauer’s cutter/slider profile.
Arizona — RHP Mike Soroka (Projected: 3–4, 3.89 ERA, 1.26 WHIP)
Profile:
Ground‑ball specialist (52%)
Elite command when healthy
Keeps ball in park
Vulnerable to left‑handed hitters
Matchup Notes: Dodgers’ left‑handed core (Freeman, Muncy, Outman) is a tough matchup for Soroka’s sinker‑heavy approach.
