The Giants beat the Dodgers 29-2 on Wednesday, with their two best players combining to hit 8-8 with a home run, four doubles, four walks, and a stolen base. Unfortunately, that was in the Arizona Complex League. In the slightly more competitive, and slightly more meaningful Major League Baseball game, the Giants lost to the […]
The Dodgers are back in the win column as they snapped their four-game losing streak behind another dominant performance from Shohei Ohtani on the mound.

For mere mortals, an off-day means an off-day, but for Shohei Ohtani, the definition of it is a bit different. For the fourth time this season, the Dodgers will take the field without Ohtani as their designated hitter. If the recent track record serves as an indicator, it’s one of those bad with him and […]
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers swept the New York Mets four weeks ago, their second sweep in four series at Dodger Stadium at that point, running their record to 14-4. It feels like a lifetime ago now. The Dodgers also won their next game, the series opener at Coors Field for a 15-4 record. They […]

Three one-run losses and a blowout win for the Ontario Tower Buzzers—that’s how the day went in the Dodgers’ minor league system.

The Dodgers are now losers of four straight (again) after falling to the San Francisco Giants 6-2 on Tuesday, but Shohei Ohtani was able to bust out of his slump and was the only redeeming factor for the Dodgers. Ohtani went 2-4 with a single, a home run and a walk, recording his first home […]
Eric Haase is no kid, but he can definitely play. In his sixth game with the San Francisco Giants, the veteran catcher hit two home runs off Yoshinobu Yamamato (3-3), the second happening one pitch after Harrison Bader took Yamamoto deep in the 5th inning. That put the Giants up 3-2 and they went on […]

LOS ANGELES — Max Muncy hit a home run on Monday against the San Francisco Giants, which might have been expected.

Recently, Eric Stephen made the following observation on BlueSky, referencing the extinct dodo bird in relation to MLB physical tickets.

LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers on Tuesday acquired center fielder Alek Thomas from the Arizona Diamondbacks for 17-year-old minor league outfielder Jose Requena. The calling card for Thomas is his defense, with 13 career Outs Above Average in center field, though 12 of those came in 2022-23, his first two seasons. At the plate, conversely, […]
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers at least had a lead on Monday, which counts as progress for the funk they are in at the moment. It was their first lead since Friday, when they scratched together three runs against Chris Sale in what felt like one of their best wins of the season so far. […]
A busy Monday saw the Dodgers get Mookie Betts back from the injured list after missing five weeks, Alex Freeland got sent down to Triple-A Oklahoma City, and the offense continued to scuffle in a blowout loss to the San Francisco Giants.

LOS ANGELES — Shohei Ohtani won’t hit in one of the final two games against the San Francisco Giants this week, but Dodgers manager Dave Roberts hasn’t yet decided if that will be on Wednesday when Ohtani pitches or on Thursday for what would amount to a mental reset day for the slumping superstar. When […]
As Roki Sasaki and Trevor McDonald took different paths to deliver extremely similar results—Sasaki navigating through far less traffic than McDonald—it was up to the bullpens to decide this game, and the Giants’ one proved superior on the evening, securing a 9-3 win to open up this four-game set at Dodger Stadium. Hanging splitters and […]
