Lourdes Gurriel Jr. - The Canadian PressLOS ANGELES — Lourdes Gurriel Jr. and the surprising Arizona Diamondbacks made quick work of another Dodgers' starter, beating Los Angeles 4-2 on Monday night behind Zac Gallen for a 2-0 lead in their National League Division Series.
The young Diamondbacks, who earned the final National League wild-card berth despite losing their final four regular-season games, improved to 4-0 in these playoffs — all on the road against division winners. They'll try for a stunning sweep of the 100-win Dodgers when the best-of-five series shifts to Arizona for Game 3 on Wednesday.
Gallen allowed two runs over 5 1/3 innings for his second win of the post-season. Gurriel laced an RBI single to cap a three-run first, and the Diamondbacks chased rookie starter Bobby Miller in the second — two days after Los Angeles ace Clayton Kershaw was tagged for six runs while getting only one out during Arizona's 11-2 rout in Game 1.
