The San Francisco Giants welcome the Los Angeles Dodgers to Oracle Park on Friday, Sept. 12, for the opener of a three-game set, with first pitch scheduled for 10:15 p.m. ET.

Los Angeles rolls in with momentum after blanking the Colorado Rockies 9-0 on Wednesday. Mookie Betts stole the show at the plate, going 4-for-5 with a double, a homer, and five RBIs, while Blake Snell dominated on the mound with six scoreless innings of two-hit, 11-strikeout ball to earn the win.
