Dodgers News

Yoshinobu Yamamoto's bid for a perfect game was thwarted by an unfortunate bad hop that led to a Mookie Betts error, reflecting the harsh realities of baseball and the quirks of ballpark conditions. Despite that setback, the Dodgers rallied to a thrilling 6-5 walk-off win against the Orioles, thanks to Dalton Rushing's clutch single and a Baltimore throwing error in the ninth. Meanwhile, Andy Pages is making a strong case for the All-Star game with his standout defensive plays, adding depth to an already potent lineup that welcomed back Shohei Ohtani following the birth of his second child. The Dodgers are on solid footing with a 5-2 record over the last week, but with 14 players on the injured list, the team's depth and resilience will be tested as they push through the season.
