The Colorado Rockies edged the Los Angeles Dodgers 4–3 on July 7 at UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium in a low-scoring affair that fell short of the 9.5-run Vegas total. The Dodgers struck out 11 batters while allowing just 8 hits and 1 earned run, posting a respectable 3.48 ERA, yet committed 2 defensive errors that proved costly in a one-run defeat. Colorado's pitching was less efficient, yielding 8 hits and posting a 5.49 ERA, but the Rockies' disciplined plate approach—drawing 3 walks to Los Angeles's 4—and ability to manufacture 4 runs on just 8 hits and no home runs proved decisive. The Dodgers managed only 1 home run and 3 RBIs across 8 hits, with a .785 OPS that suggested offensive potential left unrealized. Both teams struck out frequently, with Colorado's 11 strikeouts offsetting their contact-based scoring strategy. The Rockies' road victory improves their ability to compete in the NL West despite their weaker pitching profile heading into the second half.
