Dodgers Lose Ground to Brewers as Roberts Demands Urgency

The Dodgers fell to 74-51 and three games behind Milwaukee (77-48) for the NL lead after a four-game set, complicating home-field advantage and tiebreakers. Tarik Skubal remains winless in Dodgers colors, Shohei Ohtani managed just three hits in the series, and Dave Roberts criticized weeks of inconsistent offense and defense, urging a sharper, 1-through-9 approach and greater urgency as L.A. fights to sustain its aspirations in a tight NL race.

Dodgers’ Offense Goes Quiet in Slump Before Cy Young Return Week

The Dodgers fell 4-2 to the Diamondbacks, extending their slide to eight losses in nine games as their offense stalls after the All-Star break (85 runs in that span). They still lead the NL West by 7.5 games but have gone 21-21 since June 19, with Pages and Tucker supplying most of the offense while other stars have struggled. Manager Dave Roberts says there’s no panic and the team will get a boost this week with Tarik Skubal and Blake Snell set to start as they face Royals, Brewers, Rockies and Pirates, hoping to regain form and consistency.

Tatis Debuts at 2B as Padres Shuffle Lineup in NL West Update

Fernando Tatis Jr. started at second base for the Padres in a 9-5 win over the Rockies, his second career 2B game and first start there as San Diego rotates players with Bogaerts resting; he went 3-for-4 with a walk and RBI, and the move aims to keep him fresh while his primary position remains right field. Luis Arraez’s right wrist injury produced negative X-rays and he’s day-to-day after being kicked by a Beavers baserunner, with the Giants noting his .304/.339/.393 line through 63 plate appearances. Sam Hentges joined the Giants on a one-year deal and began a rehab assignment after a long layoff due to injuries; Blake Snell threw a 15-pitch simulated inning as he builds back toward a season debut, with a four-inning target before a rehab stint. Tommy Edman participated in the session as he recovers from ankle surgery and isn’t expected back until late May, with Dodgers possibly moving him to the 60-day IL to free 40-man space.
