Corey Seager likes his third inning home run off of Shelby Miller..

4/23/17
Phoenix, AZ (AP) – The Los Angeles Dodgers used a quick start to run their winning streak to five games as they completed a sweep of the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday afternoon with a 5-4 victory at Chase Field. Corey Seager provided the fireworks for the Dodgers, going 2 for 5 with a two-run home run and two runs scored in the victory.

game20b_17Jake Lamb hit his seventh home run on the season in the eighth inning, but it wasn't enough.
Los Angeles (8-11) jumped on a shaky Shelby Miller in the top of the first inning. Joc Pederson drew a one-out walk. Corey Seager singled to left and both runners would advance on a Miller wild pitch. Justin Turner would line a single back up the middle to score both runners to give Los Angeles a 2-0 lead.

Seager would add to that lead in the third as he hit a long home run into the seats in right. The two run shot gave the Dodgers a 4-0 lead.

The Dodgers would end up getting a big insurance run in the sixth off of Miller. Andre Ethier drew a one-out walk. He advanced to third on a Yasmani Grandal single. Logan Forsythe then hit one back at Miller that deflected off of him, allowing Ethier to score to make it 5-0.

Arizona (12-8) would finally get to Hyun-Jin Ryu in the bottom half of the sixth. A.J. Pollock singled to open the inning. After a Chris Owings flyout, Paul Goldschmidt singled to right to extend his hitting streak to 17 games. Jake Lamb singled to right to load the bases with just one out. Yasmany Tomas broke through with a tw-run single back up the middle to cut the Dodger lead to just three. Brandon Drury then singled back up the middle to score Lamb to make it 5-3.

Pedro Baez was brought in from the bullpen and he struck out Nick Ahmed and got Chris Iannetta to bounce out to end the inning.

Jake Lamb would hit a solo home run with one out in the eighth off of Sergio Romo to pull Arizona back to within a run, but they could not find another and Kenley Jansen shut the door in the ninth to secure the Dodger sweep.

Hyun-Jin Ryu (1-1) picked up the victory, going 5 1/3 innings and allowing three runs on eight hits. He struck out three and walked two. Shelby Miller (1-2) took the loss but wasn't horrible after a shaky start. He went seven innings, allowing the five runs on just six hits. He struck out three and walked four.

Arizona has seen their lead in the West shrink to just a half game over the Giants. They will now host San Diego for a four game series beginning Monday evening with Zack Greinke (1-2, 3.67) taking the ball and facing Trevor Cahill (0-1, 4.03).
