They began with a two-game sweep in the best-of-three wild-card series against the NL Central champion Milwaukee Brewers before knocking out the NL West champion Dodgers in the best-of-five divisional round. Ninth-place hitter Geraldo Perdomo led off the bottom of the third inning with a solo home run, and one out later, Ketel Marte homered deep into the right field seats. The Dodgers' two biggest stars, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman, combined to go 0-for-8 in Game 3 and finished the series 1-for-21 as a duo. Paul Sewald pitched around a single in the ninth inning for his fourth save of the postseason. Arizona lost Moreno, its catcher who has a team-leading three postseason home runs, to a bruised right hand.

PHOENIX (AP) — The Los Angeles Dodgers’ third straight 100-win season led to a third consecutive postseason flop. “There’s some things with the format that people can dissect or whatever, but the bottom line is that the last two years we’ve got outplayed in the postseason,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. The Dodgers won the NL West in 10 of those seasons, yet their only World Series in that span was following the pandemic-shortened 2020 season. And after winning 100 games this season, the Dodgers were swept by Arizona, which had 16 fewer wins. It's just how I didn't help the team win the series and that's the most disappointing part, letting your guys down.”___
