Arizona goes for a split of the four-game series after blowing a late 2-0 lead on Saturday night, and the Diamondbacks have Clay Buchholz on the mound having won six of his last eight starts. Buchholz has allowed only one run his last three starts in 23 innings, and he's 7-2 with a 2.07 ERA on the season. Also, the right-hander has been even better on the road where he owns a 1.73 ERA and .206 opponent batting average. The Dodgers will be seeing him for the first time this season while Walker Buehler goes for Los Angeles. He comes off a start against Texas where he threw 84 pitches in four innings in an eventual 8-4 win over the Rangers. He'll also be facing the Diamondbacks for the first time. And he has a 5.87 ERA in day games. The road team is a live underdog in this matchup. Play the Diamondbacks.
