Latest news and updates about the Dodgers
Divisional battles highlighted the week in the National League West. The San Francisco Giants took two of three games against at home the Dodgers, a series in which runs were at a premium, with 10 runs total between the two teams and two shutouts, nobody scoring more than three in any contest. Dalton Rushing was […]
This series wasn’t going to be easy, we all knew that before it began. And when Shōta Imanaga had a 32-pitch first inning in which he allowed a pair of walks and three runs, that made the Cubs’ task that much more difficult. That, and the fact that the Cubs again had RISP issues, going […]
The Dodgers took the three-game series from the Chicago Cubs on Sunday, as Justin Wrobleski and the bullpen held the Cubs silent in a 6-0 shutout win. For a second straight game, Nico Hoerner led off the game with a base hit, and the Cubs put two men on with only one out against Wrobleski. […]
Go get ‘em, Shōta.
Looking to take two of three, the Dodgers host the Chicago Cubs on Sunday. Justin Wrobleski faces Shota Imanaga. SUNDAY GAME INFO
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers plan to start Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Shohei Ohtani, and Tyler Glasnow in that order for their three-game series against the Miami Marlins beginning Monday night at Dodger Stadium. That really isn’t news, except that they could have pushed Ohtani to Wednesday’s series finale, which would line up him to start two […]
The Dodgers continue their homestand by welcoming the Miami Marlins to town beginning Monday night at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles. Yoshinobu Yamamoto has five quality starts in five tries this season, with a 2.48 ERA and 3.63 xERA, but only has two wins, thanks to getting exactly one run of support in three of […]
Roster moves (Bluesky link): Sunday notes… The Cubs lineup was not available at posting time. Please check BCB social media for the Cubs lineup. Dodgers lineup: Shōta Imanaga, LHP vs. Justin Wrobleski, LHP After a somewhat rough first start this year, Shōta Imanaga has been just magnificent over his last four outings: 1.13 ERA, 0.542 […]
2026 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 28 Dodgers 6, Cubs 0: It just wasn’t Shōta Imanaga’s day Cubs vs. Dodgers, Sunday 4/26, 3:10 CT live! Chicago Cubs vs. Los Angeles Dodgers preview, Sunday 4/26, 3:10 CT
I find it appropriate to start out by hat tipping the Dodgers offense. They curb stomped Colin Rea and Javier Assad in this one. A further hat tip to four Dodger relievers who combined to allow just two hits and a walk over the final four innings of the game. The Dodgers offense and bullpen […]
Two Dodgers minor league outfielders had monster games to highlight Saturday action on the farm. Player of the day One day after hitting his first professional home run, Ontario outfielder AJ Soldra hit two more on Saturday in San Jose, and he tripled in a three-hit, three-RBI, three-run game. Soldra, drafted in the 16th round […]
One thing that is absolutely, undeniably true about sports is that all winning streaks must end, sometime. Thus we knew that eventually, the Cubs would lose another game after going on their longest winning streak since the World Series year of 2016. It’s not always pretty when winning streaks end and that was the case […]
Bringing a team on the verge of 11 consecutive victories to a screeching halt was the seemingly impossible task for a struggling Roki Sasaki on Saturday. On his first ever bobblehead day, Sasaki did what he could to allow the Dodgers to pounce on Chicago Cubs starter Colin Rea, and it resulted in his first […]
Good morning, baseball fans! Another week of San Francisco Giants baseball is coming to a close today, which means it’s time for us to share our favorite highlights of the week! I think this week’s winner is pretty obvious. Patrick Bailey, hitter of walk-off grand slams against the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2025, got the […]
LOS ANGELES — After five losses in seven games and blowing a four-run lead in the series opener, the Dodgers needed some good news, and got in on Saturday thanks to an offense producing enough to overcome any deficiencies in a 12-4 win over the Chicago Cubs on Saturday evening at Dodger Stadium. Dave Roberts […]
Go get ‘em, Colin.
The Dodgers try to avoid their third two-game losing streak in an eight-day stretch. Saturday game info
The Dodgers finish off their weekend series against the Cubs on Sunday afternoon at Dodger Stadium, and give the ball to Justin Wrobleski, who is currently on a heater. Wrobleski has lasted eight innings and seven innings in his last two starts, allowing one total run with no walks in wins over the New York […]
Saturday notes… Cubs lineup: Dodgers lineup: Colin Rea, RHP vs. Roki Sasaki, RHP Colin Rea has been just what the Cubs needed — a solid starter to replace Cade Horton in the rotation. Rea obviously is no Horton, but he gets the job done. In his last three games (two starts plus one as the […]
2026 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 27 Dodgers 12, Cubs 4: The 10-game winning streak ends with a thud Cubs vs. Dodgers, Saturday 4/25, 6:15 CT live! Chicago Cubs vs. Los Angeles Dodgers preview, Saturday 4/25, 6:15 CT
The Dodgers offense spent most of the last week wasting an incredible stretch by the starting rotation, coupled with a suddenly vulnerable bullpen having their worst week of the season. That fueled five losses over the last seven games, and now the Dodgers on Saturday turn to Roki Sasaki, the black sheep of the rotation […]
There’s something special about this Cubs team. Do you feel it? Utterly dominated by Dodgers right-hander Emmet Sheehan for six innings, trailing 4-0 heading to the seventh, the Cubs cut that to 4-3 thanks in part to a triple (!) by Dansby Swanson. Then an Alex Bregman homer tied the game in the eighth, and […]
Dodgers broadcaster Rick Monday will be honored at the National Baseball Hall of Fame this summer during induction weekend, part of the 50th anniversary celebration of him stopping an American flag from getting burned on the field at Dodger Stadium on April 25, 1976. It’s been quite a baseball life for Monday, who was the […]
The Chicago Cubs (17-9) came into the series against the Dodgers (17-9) red hot having won nine straight games, their longest winning streak in 10 years. The Cubs couldn’t touch Emmet Sheehan in the series opener Friday at Dodger Stadium, but as soon as he came out Chicago pounced on the L.A. bullpen and scored […]
The Dodgers (17-8) return home to take on the red hot Chicago Cubs (16-9) for a three game series starting Friday night at Dodger Stadium. Emmet Sheehan (2-0, 5.58 ERA, 1.40 WHIP) makes his fifth start for the Dodgers. Jameson Taillon (1-1, 3.97 ERA, 1.28 WHIP toes the rubber for the Cubs. Lineups Friday game […]
