The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks 3–2 on March 28 at UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium in a low-scoring affair that fell well short of the Vegas over-under total of 1. The Dodgers managed just 6 hits but made them count, driving in 3 runs while striking out 6 times and posting an OPS of .742. Los Angeles's pitching staff was the decisive factor, recording 7 strikeouts against just 1 walk and allowing only 5 hits and 2 earned runs for a 2.67 ERA. The Diamondbacks, meanwhile, struggled offensively with a .200 batting average and a meager .564 OPS, managing only 5 hits and 2 RBIs despite drawing a walk. Arizona's pitching proved ineffective, surrendering 6 hits while walking 3 and posting a bloated 5.63 ERA. The Dodgers' clean defensive game and superior pitch execution proved the difference in this spring training contest, suggesting early command development could be critical as the season approaches.
