"The consistent trend of inconsistency continued, with the pitchers allowing just one run and four hits through eight innings. You'd think that would be enough, but naturally it wasn't, with the Dodgers scoring just one run on a Freddie Freeman solo shot. Four of the six pitchers they faced had ERAs above 4.4, yet they managed just one run. That's now four runs over their last three games."
"The issues that plague them change from game to game, but they're yet to play a clean game over this four game losing streak. It's too late in the year for this to happen, and they need to turn the corner soon. All that matters is that they're hot at the right time, but they've been bad for such a long stretch, that at a certain point it's more likely that you just are what your results indicate."
The Dodgers lost the series opener to the Baltimore Orioles while pitchers allowed one run and four hits through eight innings. The offense produced only one run via a Freddie Freeman solo home run, totaling four runs across the last three games. Opposing pitchers included four with ERAs above 4.4, yet the Dodgers failed to capitalize. Lineup adjustments include a left-handed starter facing Trevor Rogers, Michael Conforto moved to the bench, Kiké Hernández at third, Miguel Rojas at second, Hyeseong Kim benched, and Ben Rortvedt starting with Dalton Rushing injured. Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Trevor Rogers form the upcoming pitching matchup.
