Ozzie Albies hit a two-run homer off Tanner Scott in the ninth after Ronald Acuña Jr.’s leadoff single, but Evan Phillips induced an Austin Riley groundout with a runner on to earn the save. The Braves managed only four hits.
What comes next
Skubal said pitching at home for his first postseason start as a Dodger was “a ton of fun” despite the heat. Manager Dave Roberts praised Skubal’s six innings in the conditions and the bullpen’s work. Game 2 at Dodger Stadium is Sunday evening, with Blake Snell lined up for Los Angeles.
