Baseball Dodgers Sweep Rockies In Series Finale 8-7 by William Coppola April 17, 2025 Image Credit: Emma Sharon/Latino Sports LOS ANGELES, CA — After watching the Dodgers starting rotation over the past five days, I have concluded that they are looking down the barrel of a 12-gauge shotgun as it pertains to how many decisions they will have to make when all their starters are back from various stints on the IL/DL. The core of their starting rotation is performing at a high level; a few on the roster will probably find themselves riding a bus to away games or looking for a new residence in a new city. On Wednesday night, Dodger Stadium saw LA’s Bobby Miller, one of their top young arms, on the hill to face the Rockies in their three-game series finale.

Trust me, there were major league scouts in the ballpark tonight, and it is not for the free “Dodger Dogs” in the press lounge. The Rockies counter with Germán Márquez, San Felix, Venezuela, who, like his fellow countryman, Antonio Senzatela, Valencia, Venezuela, has only played for the Rockies and is also in his tenth season in the big leagues. Márquez is 0-2 with an ERA of 4.60.

Then, with two outs, the Dodgers started cooking with four more hits to plate five more runs as they batted 12, giving Miller a six-run lead in the first inning.

It was not a stellar game for either starter, and as one pro scout who came specifically to see Miller stated, “Nothing to see here for me.” Image Credit: Emma Sharon/Latino Sports With this 8-7 win on Wednesday, the Dodgers swept the Rockies and are headed to Texas to begin a five-game road trip. One awful note from this game was that the Rockies struck out 15 times, with one player fanning three times and two striking out four times!
