Rich Hill of the Los Angeles Dodgers pitches against the Arizona Diamondbacks

Hill Returns To Face D-Backs Team He Has Struggled Against

The last time we saw Rich Hill on the mound, he was getting lit up by the Arizona Diamondbacks. After spending nearly a month on the DL, Hill returns to the Los Angeles Dodgers rotation against the same D-backs team that beat him up for seven runs in five innings in his last start. Can Hill get some revenge or will the D-backs continue to beat up the southpaw Tuesday?

SHARK BITES
  • The Diamondbacks are 17-1 when scoring four or more runs this season.
  • The Diamondbacks are 9-2 SU in their last 11 games when Sportsbook a series.
  • Cody Bellinger is slashing .341/.349/.537 in 41 at-bats vs the Diamondbacks this season.

It will be imperative for Hill to contain the Diamondbacks if the Dodgers want to compete in this one. The Diamondbacks are 17-1 when scoring four or more runs this season – including winning each of their last 12 when plating at least four runners.

Starting opposite Hill will be Zack Godley, who has been a steady presence in the Diamondbacks rotation. The 28-year-old righty has a 3.41 ERA while yielding a mere 0.5 home runs per 9/IP. Godley has already faced the Dodgers twice this season, allowing eight runs while surrendering 10 walks in 17.0 innings of work.
