Pages followed a double of Michael Comforto in the fifth round with his second home run in the match and the 23rd of the season, also on the left.
Los Angeles pushed his advance in the sixth. With the loaded bases and two withdrawals, the pages struck what seemed to be an end-of-round soil at the stop stop. However, the ball went between the legs of the Elly de la Cruz des Reds to score two points for an advance of 5-0.
Sheehan’s 10th withdrawal came against Spencer Steer for the second fate of the seventh round. Betts then stopped diving in the hole at the stop stop, and its throw for first made seven rounds for the right-hander.
