Justin Wrobleski made his season debut and got absolutely shelled, the offense was mostly kept in check, and the Dodgers ended up getting blown out 8-2 by the Nationals to drop their second consecutive series of the season.
======
As mentioned, Wrobleski got hammered and was forced to wear it a bit to get innings. He ended up surrendering eight runs over five innings.
In particular, James Wood got him twice.

To get them through the game, Ben Casparius was burned in a blowout, going two shutout to keep his ERA pristine. Luis Garcia finished the game out with a scoreless frame of his own.
For the Dodgers, well … Andy Pages hit his first homer.

And Enrique Hernandez hit his fourth late in the game, so every hit he has this season is still a homer.
Yup.
======
9-4 as the Dodgers have now lost three games in a row, two series in a row, and are in third place in the NL West.
The series concludes tomorrow at 10:05 AM HT/1:05 PM PT/4:05 PM ET with Landon Knack making his domestic season debut against Cole Irvin.
