Freddie Freeman - Big performance in winFreeman went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Saturday's 8-6 win over the Diamondbacks.
ImpactThe Dodgers opened the game with three straight homers, with Freeman's giving them a 3-0 lead early against Merrill Kelly. Freeman also had an RBI single in the second inning. He's homered in each of the last two games after taking a three-game break to rest and manage a hairline fracture in his right middle finger that he appears prepared to play through heading into September. The first baseman is up to a .286/.382/.486 slash line, 19 homers, 78 RBI, 72 runs scored and six stolen bases through 124 contests this season.

ImpactPhillips was sharp in August, allowing two runs (one earned) over 12.1 innings while posting a 20:1 K:BB across 14 appearances.

Gavin Stone - Gets through five inningsStone allowed five runs on five hits and a walk while striking out four over five innings in a no-decision versus the Diamondbacks on Saturday.
ImpactStone gave up four runs in the first inning and one run in the third. He left the game with the Dodgers leading 6-5, but the Diamondbacks tied it once more to deny him his 12th win of the year. Stone had allowed just two runs over 19 innings across his last three starts before Saturday's less impressive effort. He's now at a 3.53 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 116:37 K:BB through 140.1 innings over 25 starts. Stone has allowed 18 homers this year, with 12 of them coming over his last 10 starts, which remains a point of concern for the right-hander. He's projected to make his next start at home versus the Guardians.
