Emmet Sheehan returned to the Dodger Stadium mound after a long recovery from Tommy John surgery. Prior to his start, he practiced his pitching motion to reacquaint himself with the mound. After a promising rookie season in 2023, Sheehan missed last season but impressed upon his return by throwing four strong innings against the San Diego Padres. His performance included a fastball averaging 95 mph, striking out six batters, and allowing only one run, demonstrating his potential as a top pitching prospect in the Dodgers organization.
"After an auspicious rookie season in 2023, Sheehan missed all of last season and the first three months of this campaign after undergoing Tommy John surgery."
"...his fastball sitting around 95 mph, and a tantalizing combination of sliders and changeups keeping Padres hitters off balance, Sheehan gave up just one run while striking out six batters in his big-league return."
