On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, the Dodgers return home after a terrible 1-5 road trip against two last-place teams in the Pirates and Orioles.

Also last week, both catchers got injured, two starting pitchers were scratched, plus more on the offense struggling for over two months, 40-man roster decisions coming, plus pending returns of Max Muncy, Alex Vesia, and Tommy Edman from the injured list.

On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, the Dodgers dropped a second straight game to the Pirates, failing to score a run Wednesday night. But more importantly, catcher Will Smith was hit on his right hand by a foul ball and left the game with a right hand contusion. Shohei Ohtani had two hits, including a double, but didn’t make his scheduled pitching start, pushed back to this weekend in Baltimore because he was feeling under the weather.
