Lowe didn’t pitch professionally this season after failing to make the Dodgers out of spring training. Now 35 years old, he hasn’t pitched in the majors since putting up an ugly 7.11 ERA in 54 appearances with the Tigers in 2016. He’s willing to accept a spring training invite or perhaps accept an opportunity overseas in order to pitch again.

Pfaadt gave up runs in the seventh and eighth to make what was an impressive start a relatively pedestrian one. It’s still good enough for him to pick up his eighth — and almost assuredly final — win of the regular season, and he struck out seven against two walks. If the Diamondbacks can catch the Phillies, Pfaadt will likely start in the Wild Card Series. If not, he finishes with a 3.77 ERA, and showed enough in 2026 to suggest there’s more good things to come.

Keaschall certainly doesn’t want this season to end. He helped put an exclamation point on the Twins’ six-run, second-inning rally with a two-run triple and then hit another run-scoring double in the fourth. He’s now up to a .281 batting average and .781 OPS with two games left on the season to go along with 10 home runs and 20 stolen bases. If you split out for just the second half, Keaschall has a .313/.402/.475 slash line. That would be star-caliber production if he could sustain it for a full season.

Hernández slugged a solo shot in the second inning to give the Dodgers a 1-0 lead, and to give the 33-year-old his 16th homer of the 2026 campaign. His 2026 campaign hasn’t been near the best of his career, but a .268/.336/.427 slash is nothing to sneeze at.

He also stole a base, which gives him 13. Pages doubled the lead for the Dodgers with his 22nd homer of the season. It was also the 81st run driven in for the 25-year-old, who has shown flashes of potentially becoming a fantasy stalwart in the future.

Scott struck out a pair after Roki Sasaki threw a scoreless inning of relief in the eighth. The 32-year-old has saved 24 games, and his ERA dips to 2.73.

Marte pitched well, but two solo homers was more than enough offense for Tarik Skubal. The 23-year-old deserves credit for pitching significantly better against Los Angeles after he was lit up by the Dodgers for six runs in his previous attempt. Assuming he stays in the organization, Marte will get a chance to earn a spot for San Francisco during the spring training season.
