The Dodgers traveled to Phoenix to begin a four-game series against the Diamondbacks, needing to win just two of them to clinch the Western Division title. In the opener, Hyun-Jin Ryu allowed only two hits in a complete game effort; however, one of those hits was a two-run homer by Paul Goldschmidt and they lost again 2–1. Matt Kemp and Hanley Ramírez returned to the Dodgers' lineup on September 17 after missing time with injuries and both reached base four times as Uribe and González homered. The Dodgers snapped the four-game losing streak with a 9–3 win. They failed in their first chance to clinch the division when spot starter Stephen Fife didn't make it out of the third the next night and Ronald Belisario was pounded for five runs in relief. The Diamondbacks won 9–4. The Dodgers clinched the National League West championship with a 7–6 win over the Diamondbacks on September 19. Ramírez hit two home runs and A. J. Ellis hit the game-winning homer in the eighth inning for the Dodgers' first West title since 2009. The team's -game deficit on June 21 was the largest the Dodgers had ever overcome to win a division, and they were just the fourth team in MLB history to ever accomplish that feat. The next day, the Dodgers rested all the regulars in the opening of a series at the San Diego Padres. The backups could not generate any offense and the Padres won 2–0. Clayton Kershaw was brilliant the next day, pitching seven shutout innings while allowing just three hits and striking out ten. Yasiel Puig and A. J. Ellis both hit two-run homers in the 4–0 victory. Zack Greinke pitched five shutout innings as the Dodgers wrapped up their series with the Padres with a 1–0 win. Hyun-jin Ryu allowed only one run in seven innings and Puig and Matt Kemp each hit solo homers as the Dodgers won the opener of their final road series of the season, 2–0, over the Giants. Ricky Nolasco allowed six runs over innings in his last start of the regular season, a 6–4 loss to the Giants. It was his third straight poor start. The Dodgers finished up their final road series of the regular season when Ángel Pagán homered off Paco Rodriguez to give the Giants a 3–2 victory.
