LOS ANGELES (Interstat) — Shohei Ohtani delivered a dominant two-way performance Wednesday night, pitching six innings of no-hit ball while homering to lead the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 4-1 victory over the Colorado Rockies at Dodger Stadium.

Ohtani, who improved to 5-2, allowed one earned run on zero hits, striking out seven and walking two. He also went 1 for 4 at the plate with a solo home run. Kyle Hurt earned his first save of the season with a perfect ninth inning, striking out one.

The Dodgers have won three straight against the Rockies, improving to 36-20, while Colorado dropped to 20-37. The attendance was 50,832, and the game lasted 2 hours, 29 minutes.

Los Angeles struck quickly in the bottom of the first. Ohtani led off with a home run to center field, his ninth of the season, tying the score at 1-1 after the Rockies had failed to score in the top half. Freddie Freeman followed with a solo shot to left-center, his seventh, giving the Dodgers a 2-1 lead. Mookie Betts and Max Muncy then made outs to end the inning.

Colorado’s only run came in the fourth against Ohtani. TJ Rumfield drew a one-out walk, and Hunter Goodman was hit by a pitch. After a forceout, Willi Castro grounded out to second base, scoring Rumfield to tie the game 1-1. The Rockies managed only one hit all night, a two-out single by Tyler Freeman in the eighth inning against Tanner Scott.

The Dodgers regained the lead in the bottom of the fourth. Hyeseong Kim singled with one out, and Will Smith doubled to left, putting runners at second and third. Alex Call then singled sharply to left, driving in Kim. Smith tried to score from second but was thrown out at home by left fielder Troy Johnston, ending the inning with Los Angeles ahead 3-1.

Ohtani continued to shut down the Rockies, retiring 10 straight batters from the second through the fifth innings. He faced the minimum through three frames, allowing only a walk and a hit-by-pitch. Colorado did not record a hit until Freeman’s single in the eighth.

Los Angeles added an insurance run in the eighth. Andy Pages led off with a line-drive home run to left, his 13th, extending the lead to 4-1. Freeman followed with a single but was erased on a double play.

Tomoyuki Sugano took the loss for Colorado, falling to 4-4. He allowed three runs on five hits over four innings, striking out three and walking three.

The Rockies’ offense was stifled throughout. After the fourth-inning run, they put only one more runner in scoring position. In the fifth, Sterlin Thompson walked with one out but was left on base. In the eighth, Freeman’s single was followed by a flyout to end the threat.

Defensively, the Rockies turned two double plays, including one in the eighth inning when first baseman TJ Rumfield started a 3-6-3 twin killing. But the Dodgers’ pitching was too much. Scott worked a scoreless seventh, striking out two, and Hurt retired the side in order in the ninth.

Colorado has now lost three straight and six of its last eight. The Rockies next host the San Francisco Giants starting Friday, while the Dodgers welcome the Philadelphia Phillies for a three-game series beginning the same day.
