The Los Angeles Dodgers edged the Philadelphia Phillies 2–1 on July 21 at Citizens Bank Park in a pitcher-dominated matchup that fell well short of the Vegas total of 8.5 runs. The Dodgers manufactured their two runs on just five hits, including one home run and two RBIs, while posting a superior .771 OPS despite striking out 11 times. Philadelphia managed only seven hits with zero home runs and a single RBI, finishing with a .705 OPS and matching the Dodgers' 11 strikeouts in a largely futile offensive performance. Los Angeles starter allowed just one earned run across seven hits while striking out 11, posting a 3.53 ERA, while the Phillies' pitcher surrendered two earned runs on five hits with an identical 11 strikeouts and a 4.22 ERA. The Dodgers' pitching efficiency—allowing seven hits while fanning 11—proved the decisive factor in a low-scoring affair that underscored Los Angeles's ability to win tight games on the road. With this victory, the Dodgers continue building their run differential advantage over a struggling Phillies offense.
