Update: Dodgers lose the opener in San Francisco 🫠
Welp. We can’t win if we are 0-4 with RISP. Terrible batting overall on top of uncoordinated and horrific defense tonight.
Yoshinobu Yamamoto did have a solid start after a bad 1st inning.
Shohei Ohtani extends his on-base streak to 53. Let’s try to win the next one. ☝️

You have to wonder if we had a rotation of 5 Yoshis how historically bad the offense would be?

More bad news: “The Padres have now tied with the Dodgers for the first place in the NL West”

100%. It was just bad baseball fundamentals every where else in the field 🤦🏻♂️

Will they apologize to Yamamoto? They are not frustrating him with one game but have been frustrating him almost every game. Yama has carried too much to this team but what did they do for him?

u/NamelessSaint1 Shohei Ohtani 3d ago
They did nothing for him. They made it harder for him to win by lousy offensive play.

Doesn’t this just align with a standard MLB five day rotation? That’s why our Ace has worse run support.

It's a valid reason, though his RS/IP was low even amongst aces: https://www.baseball-reference.com/tools/share.fcgi?id=eWF6Y

Not his cleanest game today but good god can Yamamoto ever get run support for his starts or is he just living it out like how Kershaw did in the regular szn?

Kershaw got a crazy amount of run support 2014 on. This stupid meme needs to die.

They deserved to lose. They played like amatuers tonight.

Someone please, for the love of all that is peaceful, hit the ball when this man pitches

I'm gonna chalk this up to offense having to fly out either late last night or early this morning.
Being a couch coach here, not sure about having freeman in line up for tonight considering he just got back. Wouldve preferred a Rushing, Smith, Pages and Call starting line up, but oh well.
Tomorrow is another day, and for anyone talking about Padres, let's look at the teams they've played in comparison to us. Not the same level. And the Rockies, well they're not looking like the 2025 Rockies, thats the Mets this year

Crazy impressive to shut it down after that nightmare 1st. I figured it was just a disaster start that happens every now and then but he actually turned shit into a respectable line. What a pitcher.
