Shohei Ohtani and Friends Pound Giants as Los Angeles Dodgers Win Another Series

The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Rockies 5-3 on Thursday afternoon to complete the 3-1 series win in Colorado. They escaped without any issues, although Freddie Freeman needed oxygen in the 9th inning. Freeman, Shohei Ohtani, and Will Smith all homered, Teoscar Hernandez had three hits, and even Chris Taylor had two hits and two stolen bases. On the mound, Gavin Stone was dominant for five innings before running into a little trouble in the 6th. All in all, it was a two-run win for LA and the game wasn't really even that close.Be sure to subscribe to Locked On Dodgers wherever you get your podcasts and on YouTube, and come back every weekday morning and spend your morning commute with two of the biggest Dodger fans you'll ever meet.

Shohei Ohtani lead off the game with his 21st HR. Will Smith homered in the 4th and Freddie Freeman went back to back to make it 5-0 the Bullpen would make it stand up for 5-3 win. Gavin Stone looked good for 5 innings striking out 7 things got a little shaky in the 6th but he would earn the win and he is now 8-2.

The Dodgers went from a big comeback on Tuesday to blowing a late lead on Wednesday. Bobby Miller made his return and he struggled a bit but did pitch into the 7th inning. In order to get Miller on the active roster, the Dodgers put Walker Buehler on the injured list. It appears the move is a chance for Buehler to figure out why he hasn't been able to be the pitcher he once was. Can he figure that out? Also, Clayton Kershaw made his first rehab start and all appears to have went well. How long will it take to return and what can we expect from the veteran once he does return? Lastly, robot umpires appear to be on track to get to the majors in some form sooner rather than later. What will it look like?Be sure to subscribe to Locked On Dodgers wherever you get your podcasts and on YouTube, and come back every weekday morning and spend your morning commute with two of the biggest Dodger fans you'll ever meet.

Dodgers fell behind early again in Denver after Bobby Miller, making his first start since April, gave up a 3-run home run in the first. The Dodgers would answer back and take the lead in the 2nd on a 3-run double from  Shohei Ohtani and an rbi single off the bat of Freddie Freeman. Rockies tied it again in the 4th Dodgers broke the tie in the 5th on a Jason Heyward 2-run double. But an Andy Pages error cost the Dodgers 2 runs tieing the games at 6 and sac fly in the 9th won it for the Rockies.

It was an absolutely wild game at Coors Field that saw the Dodgers score SEVEN runs in the 9th inning to take the lead and get the win. Shohei Ohtani in the leadoff spot has been fruitful, the Dodgers may have benefitted from a questionable call, and the offense made up for Walker Buehler's tough start. There's not much to say about Buehler other than he still is struggling. Also on Tuesday, we learned of the passing of Willie Mays. Jeff and Vince talk about Mays and his impact on them and the baseball world. Lastly, the Dodgers unveiled their City Connect uniforms on Monday.

It was a rough outing for Walker Buehler giving up 7 runs on 7 hits including 2 home runs in just 4 innings. The Dodgers kept grinding til the very end when they loaded the bases for Jason Hey ward in the 9th. He would make it a 1-run game with a grand slam off of the foul pole in right his 4th homer of the year. Then after questionable check swing call against the Rockies that would have ended the game, Teoscar Hernandez launched one to right center with 2 aboard that would give the Dodgers the lead.

The Los Angeles Dodgers played their first game without Mookie Betts on Monday night, and the offense stepped up. Shohei Ohtani, Miguel Rojas, and Jason Heyward had three hits each and Freddie Freeman was on base all six times he came to the plate. On the other side of the ball, James Paxton struck out eight and only walked one in seven dominant innings at Coors field. Jeff is here to dig into all of that plus a crazy trade idea from disgraced former bad GM Jim Bowden and some other crazy ideas. Be sure to subscribe to Locked On Dodgers wherever you get your podcasts and on YouTube, and come back every weekday morning and spend your morning commute with two of the biggest Dodger fans you'll ever meet.

It was a bittersweet weekend for the Dodgers as they took the series against the Royals but lost Mookie Betts and Yoshinobu Yamamoto to injury. Betts has a fractured hand and will not need surgery but his absence opens up another hole in the lineup. What can the Dodgers do to try and fix it? Yamamoto has a strained rotator cuff, and even though the Dodgers are better suited to handle him being out, it's a concern if the injury is deeper than expected. There was a positive though as Shohei Ohtani hit a pair of homers on Sunday, and will hopefully be on a hot stretch with Betts out. Be sure to subscribe to Locked On Dodgers wherever you get your podcasts and on YouTube, and come back every weekday morning and spend your morning commute with two of the biggest Dodger fans you'll ever meet.

The Dodgers lost the game and the series to the Rangers on Thursday behind a rough performance from the offense and a rough 8th inning by the 'Big 3.' It's tough to score and win if the top of the order for the Dodgers struggles. Michael Grove got the start in a bullpen game, and we question the necessity for the Dodgers to use bullpen games. Lastly, Andy Pages did homer and has been very good at the plate the last couple weeks. His continued success can really help the Dodgers clear up their deadline approach.Be sure to subscribe to Locked On Dodgers wherever you get your podcasts and on YouTube, and come back every weekday morning and spend your morning commute with two of the biggest Dodger fans you'll ever meet.

The Los Angeles Dodgers dropped another game to the Rangers to lose the series, with the offense again going dormant in a 3-1 loss. The only run came on an Andy Pages home run, and the Big 3 of Mookie Betts, Shohei Ohtani, and Freddie Freeman all struck out in the 8th inning with runners on first and third in their best scoring opportunity of the game. Michael Grove struggled as the opener, and Ryan Yarbrough struggled as the bulk guy, so by the time the very effective relievers got into the game, they were already down 3-0 in a deficit that turned out to be insurmountable. The good news is, how the Dodgers hit in June has very little to do with how they'll hit in October.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Tax Network USAReduce your tax debt and get help from a team of licensed tax professionals call 1- 800-549-1000 or visit TNUSA.com/lockedon.LinkedInRight now, you can try LinkedIn Sales Navigator and get a sixty-day free trial at LinkedIn.com/LOCKEDON.PolicygeniusCheck life insurance off your to do list in no time with Policygenius.
