What happened: Edwin Diaz continued his sharp run out of the Los Angeles bullpen in a scheduled October matchup. Drake Baldwin's deep flyout was the lone ball in play against him in the outing.

Why it matters: Los Angeles entered October still sorting late-inning trust ahead of high-leverage spots. A swing-and-miss look from Diaz shortens matchups when contact has fueled recent vulnerability.

By the numbers: Diaz: 11 strikeouts among last 20 batters faced; three pitches at 100 mph tonight.

What to watch: Watch how Los Angeles deploys Diaz in its next October leverage spot.
