Diamondbacks Aim for Historic Dodger Stadium Sweep as Gallen Lands on Injured List

The Arizona Diamondbacks are aiming for a significant achievement on Sunday, July 12, as they prepare to face the Los Angeles Dodgers with the opportunity to complete their first three-game sweep at Dodger Stadium in over a decade. This rare feat would mark a notable success for the visiting club in one of baseball's most challenging venues.

Compounding the challenge of securing the sweep, the Diamondbacks received news that starting pitcher Zac Gallen has been officially placed on the injured list. The exact nature and expected duration of Gallen's absence were not detailed in the initial reports, but his removal from the active roster significantly impacts the team's pitching depth as they attempt to close out the series.

Despite Gallen's IL designation, the Diamondbacks will still take the field aiming to capitalize on their current momentum and etch their names in the Dodger Stadium record books. The Dodgers, meanwhile, will be looking to avoid being swept on their home turf and will undoubtedly be motivated to prevent Arizona from achieving this milestone victory.
