Manager Dave Roberts expressed concern over the Dodgers' hitters struggling to recover from early deficits caused by pitching blunders, which is troubling as the postseason approaches. Every game is crucial moving forward, particularly as they prepare for what could be a challenging playoff run. The tendency to fall behind early is becoming a recurrent theme, and it raises questions about the team’s mental resilience in high-pressure situations.
Yoshinobu Yamamoto continues to impress in his second start since returning from the IL, pitching four shutout innings against the Braves while allowing just four hits and striking out three batters. His performance is significant as he ramps up for the postseason, showcasing both efficiency and effectiveness with a total of 10 whiffs in 72 pitches thrown during the game. Yamamoto's consistency could prove pivotal for the Dodgers heading into playoffs.
