Cardinals 9+, Dodgers 2+: Julio Urias gets obliterated, which is also the status of the pen’s arms now

Julio Urias gave up four homers and made it through just three innings for a bullpen that’s been running on fumes. The rotation is a mess at the moment, and despite their record, the Dodgers really need somebody to step up during this road trip or it’s gonna get ugly.

Dunno the final score, but it’s probably pretty bad.

Update

The Dodgers actually struck first behind a J.D. Martinez double with the bases loaded, but things went south soon after.

Surprisingly, they actually made it a game for a bit thanks to Freddie Freeman and Max Muncy homers, but unfortunately fell short.

*Either still playing or will play later.

The only thing funny about today is the Padres are too far behind to justify putting on the table now.

The series continues tomorrow with a start time a half hour later at 2:15 PM HT/5:15 PM PT/8:15 PM ET with Tony Gonsolin (1.42 ERA/3.32 xERA/4.97 DRA) facing Steven Matz (5.62/4.59/4.78).
