On April 30, 2018 — 2018 – The Dodgers are dealt a big blow as All-Star shortstop Corey Seager is diagnosed with a tear in a ligament in his elbow that will require Tommy John surgery, putting him out of action for the remainder of the year. In the game that follows the news, A.J. Pollock homers three times to lead the Diamondbacks to an 8 – 5 win over Los Angeles. Arizona has defeated L.A. in six of seven games this year, and 12 of their last 13 regular season meetings dating back to last year – not counting the Dodgers’ sweep of the D-Backs in the Division Series.
