Key Player Matchups
1. Freddie Freeman (LAD) vs. Ryne Nelson (ARI)
Freeman’s ability to punish elevated fastballs is a major concern for Nelson. Edge: Freeman

Ohtani’s late‑inning production has surged; Arizona’s middle relief is shaky. Edge: Ohtani
3. Christian Walker (ARI) vs. Wrobleski (LAD)
Walker crushes left-handed pitching and is Arizona’s best chance at early damage. Edge: Walker
