Los Angeles Dodgers walk-off win as Padres seek momentum before All-Star break

The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Colorado Rockies 8–7 with an 11th‑inning walk‑off single by prospect Dalton Rushing, giving the team its 60th win of the season and extending its NL West lead to 14 games. Shohei Ohtani added a two‑run homer, and the Dodgers have improved to 21–11 against division rivals.

San Diego Padres manager Craig Stammen emphasized that each game is becoming more critical as the club heads into the All‑Star break. After ending an eight‑game losing streak with a 5–2 win at Dodger Stadium, the Padres have seven home games remaining, including a four‑game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks, and are aiming to build momentum to stay in the playoff race.
