Anderson will enter the month of July riding a two-game winning streak. He picked up wins against the Giants and Marlins in the last week-and-a-half and owns a 4-4 record overall this season.
He is sporting a 3.13 ERA in 89 innings pitched and hasn’t lost a game since June 5 against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Last time out against the D-backs, Anderson threw 5 innings and gave up 4 runs on 8 hits including two home runs. He left with a no-decision on the June 10 start that the Dodgers eventually won 7-6.
Robbie Ray, meanwhile, is hoping to find a way out of his two-game losing streak. He’ll have a tough go at it as he closes the series on Wednesday night.
Ray has lost his last two starts, both coming from he hands of the Padres. He also lost his last start against the Dodgers on June 9 after allowing 2 runs on 4 hits in 6 2/3 innings of work.
