What happened in the Dodgers' 2‑0 win that clinched the series over the Padres?
All right, Padres they lose game three of this series. They have lost this series. The Dodgers Win this one by a score of two to nothing. This one's gonna be pretty quick because it's not like there was a ton of scoring. It's not like the Padres gave themselves a ton of opportunities. Um And yeah, I mean after eight consecutive losses, I mean, what else is there to say, right? But yeah, first inning. Had a runner on third. Then Ty Fran struck out. And then in the eighth inning. Um Tatis was on second. He doubled. Hustled into a double. And then Crony struck out. Alex Vestia comes into the game. Croney was what one for twelve in his career entering that at bat against Vesia. So that was obviously the right thing for the Dodgers to do.
And foul tip into the mid of Dolan Rushing and That those were their two main chances. Um There were times in this game where you're down to nothing and you've got guys swinging out of their shoes. As if them homering was gonna tie the game or Have them go ahead in the game. Sung Mun Song is someone that stuck right out as a s just like a sore thumb to me. And just swinging out of his shoes. And it's like Can we have an approach? You can't just win it all back in one swing. So that was frustrating. Uh Manny struck out. What three times tonight? And Yamamoto, like I give him credit. He did a good job of Not just attacking the zone, but Um I think he's one of those that is very Cognizant, I mean, is that the right word for this?
Cognizant of the pitch clock and using the pitch clock to his advantage. Or he'll work and he's working fast, but he will pause for a while because he knows that there's the clock there.
How did Freddie Freeman’s solo home run impact the final score?
And him pausing? makes the batter uncomfortable. Because when he comes set, you're expecting he's gonna deliver the ball. But he's not. He then holds and holds and holds. And then goes. And then when he's got, you know, a Hundo with his velocity, like it's it could be pretty tough. So Um props to him tonight for his performance. Uh the Padres will get an easier opponent tomorrow, but I wonder if that's even gonna matter. They are gonna go up against Emit Sheehan. Uh and that game is on NBC and Peacock. On the Dodgers side of things, scoring wise, there was an RBI single. In uh The third by Any Paz. Freddie Freeman Homered, when Mason Miller came into the game there. in the bottom of the eight just to get some work.
He did not look great today. Uh mis um Freddie hit one right back up the middle. And that scored another run. So this was a big night for Freddie Freeman and That includes him getting thrown out of the plate. But she's not the fastest runner and you know, Merrill to Bogards to the plate, like it was a good job there. Um But yeah, that was one of those where maybe it would have gotten worse if they would have held Freddie, 'cause who knows what have what would have happened later in that inning. Um so yeah, just another frustrating night. I was happy that it wasn't a high scoring game 'cause I'm I'm tired of that because That just doesn't really play into the Padres hand. Although You know, the other night it was six runs that they scored.
Up six nothing, right? And then They lose like what, twelve six? Or they get up. to a a three nothing lead. So I like it when it's low scoring like this. Every once in a while. Um But When you get very minimal amount of runners in scoring position opportunities. Just because of low scoring, like your your chances of winning still just aren't great, regardless. So that's Eight consecutive losses. They're now two games under five hundred. And Wow, what is the reaction gonna be Monday morning? If the Padres get swept in a four game set. by the Dodgers after getting swept in a three game set at Wrigley. If they go oh and seven on the road trip. What is that reaction gonna look like? If they lose tomorrow, is that gonna break?
The camel's back, is that a saying? Is that gonna lead to someone getting fired? I'm not saying stamina, but would another coach get fired? Would that lead to someone flipping over a table that gets reported by Kevin Acey or something?
