Justin Wrobleski allowed just one run over 6 1/3 innings, leading the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 2-1 road victory against the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday.
The Dodgers secured the win after a wild 5-2-6-4 double play in the ninth inning.
Max Muncy set the offensive pace by hitting a two-run home run in the fourth inning.
The blast tied Ron Cey for fifth on the franchise's all-time list with 228 home runs.
Wrobleski, who reached the 100-inning mark before the All-Star break, has logged the second-most innings among Dodgers pitchers this season.
He sought guidance from veteran teammate Clayton Kershaw on managing workload.
"Trying to figure out how he did it for so long, throwing 200 a year," Wrobleski said. "This is something I've been thinking about the past couple days."
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts emphasized the organization's focus on player health ahead of a deep playoff run.
"[Wrobleski's] obviously a huge piece of what we're doing and what we're going to be doing," Roberts said.
Roberts noted that the team's six-man rotation helps restrict unnecessary stress on young arms.
He pulled Wrobleski after 89 pitches in the seventh inning to preserve his arm strength.
"I thought he pitched well enough to put us in a position to win the game," Roberts said.
"I wasn't about to let him lose that game."
Muncy reacted to tying the franchise home run landmark following his fourth-inning blast.
"It's really, really cool," Muncy said.
"Any time you're on any type of leaderboard when it comes to this organization, you've done something right."
Closer Tanner Scott completed a five-out save after fielding a rundown play that caught Philadelphia runners out of position at second and third base.
"I think that's like the first time I've yelled on the field," Scott said. "I was like, 'Mookie, two!'
Crazy play."
Muncy reflected on the chaotic game-ending sequence after shortstop Mookie Betts and second baseman Tommy Edman completed the tags.
"All the work you put in pregame and from the start of the season, you hope that kicks in, just instincts," Muncy said.
