It had been more than a decade since the Giants’ last swept a series of at least three games at Dodger Stadium. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA – JUNE 18: Camilo Doval #75 of the San Francisco Giants throws a pitch against the Los Angeles Dodgers during the ninth inning at Dodger Stadium on Jin Los Angeles, California. Doval hit Will Smith with the first pitch he threw, forcing in one run and bringing the tying run to the plate, but made quick work of the next two batters, striking out David Peralta and J.D.

With a 7-3 win Sunday afternoon, the Giants completed a three-game sweep here at Dodger Stadium for the first time in more than a decade and only the sixth time since the teams moved west in 1958.
