Tonight started a weird five-game road trip that includes three off days in a week, and the matchup seemed like it could be a pitchers’ duel. Indeed that’s exactly what it was as Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Jacob deGrom went toe-to-toe over seven innings, but it was Yamamoto who made one less mistake, as Tommy Edman‘s lead-off homer ended up holding …

I wouldn’t say any game in April is a must-win for the Dodgers, but against the struggling Rockies coming off being shutout for the entire series by the Padres, it sure would’ve been nice to start this set right after dropping three-straight series, if for no other reason than to shut doomers up for a day.

Every Roki Sasaki start seems to be an event in terms of scrutiny and today will be no different as the results were good but the process to getting there was shaky. But don’t let that distract from the main problem of the Dodgers offense not getting going yet again, and then Ben Casparius melted down and was left out …
