The Los Angeles Dodgers faced the Minnesota Twins and lost 10-7, marking their 11th defeat in the last 14 games. Poor performance from the bullpen, which allowed six runs in two innings, contributed significantly to the loss. Despite some positive offensive momentum and starting pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto's improvement, the team remains in a slump, having struggled since the Fourth of July. Manager Dave Roberts emphasized the need for better performance from the players, particularly in pitching and defense, while expressing hope for the return of player Ben Casparius after injury.
"It better be rock bottom, as far as how we've been pitching, how we've been playing defense," said Dodgers manager Dave Roberts during yesterday's postgame press conference.
"Yoshi was fantastic," Roberts said. "So to kind of bottle that up - those last couple innings - and do that on the front end, I think is something that we need to shoot for."
