"Yoshinobu Yamamoto took a no-hitter into the ninth inning of his start against the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday, only to lose it when he surrendered a two-out home run to Jackson Holliday. That marked the end of Yamamoto's night at a career-high 112 pitches. He walked off the mound with the Dodgers holding a 3-1 lead and appeared to be on his way to earning his 12th win of the season."
"The stunning result extended the Dodgers' losing streak to five games and has them facing the prospect of being swept in both series of their road trip. Moreover, the team is now 6-13 in their last 19 games decided by one run. Since July 28, the Dodgers are just 6-14 against sub-.500 teams. With 20 games left in the regular season, L.A. still has a little time to turn things around and find some momentum before the playoffs."
Yoshinobu Yamamoto carried a no-hitter into the ninth inning before surrendering a two-out home run to Jackson Holliday. He finished with a career-high 112 pitches and left with the Dodgers leading 3-1. The bullpen, including Blake Treinen and Tanner Scott, failed to record the final out, allowing the Orioles to complete a 4-3 walk-off. Yamamoto expressed disappointment and called for the team to come together and overcome the loss. The defeat extended the Dodgers' losing streak to five games, left them 6-13 in one-run decisions over their last 19, and left 20 regular-season games to regain momentum.
