Urias allows a hit in the first inning but no more in his six scoreless innings as the Dodgers chase Justin Verlander from the game with a three-run fifth inning in a 6-0 win.
NEW YORK — The Dodgers sure could use a guy like that.
With the Arizona Diamondbacks losing in Toronto, the Dodgers moved into sole possession of first place in the National League West. Friday was Urias’ first scoreless outing since April 4 and only the second in 13 starts this season. He had seven last season. Urias probably also feels a sense of relief that his first half is over. He reached the All-Star break with a 4.76 ERA.
“I think I haven’t done a good job of attacking and throwing first-pitch strikes,” said Urias, who started 15 of the 22 batters he faced with a strike on Friday. “I think I’ve missed that this season and I think these last two starts, I’ve made a lot of adjustments to fix that. Being ahead of the hitters is important to me and I think throwing a quality first strike is a big deal.”
