The Dodgers played 40 games, nearly a quarter of their schedule, without playing divisional foes Arizona and San Francisco. Those boxes both get checked this week, beginning with the Diamondbacks for four games starting Monday night.
Walker Buehler starts the series opener for the Dodgers, facing Madison Bumgarner for the D-backs.
