Game 44 Thread: May 14 vs. Giants, 7p

Emmet Sheehan (2-1, 4.79) vs. Landen Roupp (5-3, 3.09).

Thanks to Shohei Ohtani playing the stopper last night, the Dodgers ended their four-game losing streak and actually took only their second game from the Giants in six games this year. Tonight, we face a starter who pretty much owned us a couple of weeks ago: 5.0 IP, 1 ER, 7 Ks, in a Giants victory.

The Dodgers' four runs last night provided some hope but should not be cause for a big celebration: we still went a meager 2-for-10 with RISP and saw 0-fer nights from Will Smith (0-for-4) and Andy Pages (0-for-3). And that's without the stuggling Ohtani taking up another 0-fer slot in the lineup.

Dave Roberts is gonna have to keep shaking up this lineup if we are going to crack the code. A quarter of the way through this season, we still haven't figured it out.
