Another listless, flat tire of a performance – Dodgers Digest

After actually taking care of business for once last game, the Dodgers looked as bad as ever against the Rockies tonight, as they cruised to a 8-3 loss.

======

Not much to recap, honestly.

Shohei Ohtani gave up five runs on a whopping nine hits in four innings, though the Rockies didn’t really need much as the Dodgers got just a Teoscar Hernandez homer when the game was in contention and were otherwise dominated by Tanner Gordon, who has been terrible up until this start.

Edgardo Henriquez got a scoreless innings, and Paul Gervase made his Dodger debut with a pair of frames. He struck out two and issued one walk to the first batter he faced, giving up a run on two singles, though the run came home on a “single” that was more Buddy Kennedy getting eaten up on a grounder. Jack Dreyer finished things off in the 9th by giving up two runs on three hits. Yay.

Aside from the homer, the Dodgers had just three hits and a walk through eight. In garbage time, they got an error, single, and Miguel Rojas double to make it 8-3 in the end.

The series will conclude tomorrow at the early game of 9:10 AM HT/12:10 PM PT/3:10 PM ET. It’ll be Clayton Kershaw looking to follow-up on his gem against Chase Dollander.
