In the first two games of this series, the Brewers jumped all over the Dodgers’ starting pitcher in the opening inning. Milwaukee scored four runs in the first inning of Friday’s series-opening win, while all three of their runs in yesterday’s 11-3 loss came in the first. That’s especially important because Los Angeles will turn […]

Being down 4-0 after the first inning put a damper in the series opener on Friday night in Milwaukee, but the Dodgers offense at least nominally threatened for most of their 5-1 loss to the Brewers.

The Dodgers’ loss in Friday’s series opener to the Milwaukee Brewers added injury to insult when third baseman Max Muncy left the game after getting hit by a pitch on his right wrist. Muncy was hit by a 95.5-mph fastball from Aaron Ashby in the top of the eighth inning on Friday, and immediately left […]
Box Score The Brewers got right down to business tonight. They came after Dodgers starter Justin Wrobleski early, and before anyone seemed to know what was happening, the Brewers had the lead.

This was a tough series for the San Diego Padres. Not because their offense couldn’t put together runs in the finale. Not just because it was against the rival Los Angeles Dodgers. It was tough for all those reasons and more. But what made it tough was how demoralizing it felt. The Friars seemed to […]
