4 games series at home against the Padres. A chance to put them out of their misery. Already a 12 game lead. Best record in MLB. Number one in run differential.
You'd think I would learn not to give up on the Dodgers. Sasaki gives up 6 runs in the first two innings. I figure they're gonna lose. So I check back a while later and they're 8-6 just like that. The division is a foregone conclusion. But the number one seed is not. Its not like they need it. The final 3 series last year they didn't have home field.
Padres gotta feel snakebit. 6-0 lead after two innings. 3-0 lead in the 7th. No lead is safe with the Dodgers. The Padres only chance at coming back in the division was a sweep. Or at least 3 out of 4. Best they can hope for is a split. That won't be easy with Yamamoto going tonight.
As a Cardinals fan, my condolences go out to Eliezer Alfonso and his family. He lost his stepmom and his sister in the earthquakes in Venezuela, found out right before his big-league debut.
I can't imagine the scope of the tragedy and how the Venezuelan players around the league are feeling at this moment.

I posted this in the Last Thing I Bought thread. I met up with @Rams8821 before the game and then we spent some time together at the stadium before the game. I had my buddy rub Freddie’s name on my back right before he hit the walk off in the 18th inning of the only World Series game I had ever been to.
This is the 18th inning walk off commemorative bobblehead they were giving away at the game on 7/6/26. I had to have it.

What a day man. What a game. I bought this on ebay as well!!!!
A good time for the All Star break. Dodgers might be a little fatigued. Swept by the D-backs before going into the break. Pitching was not good. 23 run in 3 games. Bullpen gave up the bulk of that. Dodgers scored 8. Not gonna win many games with that combination. Well, at least they have a big lead. Maybe a few days off will re-energize them.
I think the injuries to the pitchers might be catching up to them. Not to mention Will Smith's injury. Having young, inexperienced catchers can affect the pitching. Snell and Diaz might be back in a couple weeks. But I'm hearing Glasnow might need another month or two.

Dodgers are just trying to hang in there with all the injuries to the pitching. Ohtani's not pitching now. Snell's had one game this season. No one knows when or if Glasnow will return. Diaz has been out a couple months. Catcher Will Smith is still out with no timetable yet. Good thing they built a big lead. Home field would be nice but they can still get it done without it. I just hope they can get full healthy by September. Snell usually starts slow before he picks it up. He'll need a few games to get going.
Is Sasaki finally finding his form? 7 innings, 9 strikeouts. I didn't see the game but I heard his fastball was hitting triple digits with one at 102 mph. That is a good sign. For the most part this season he was in the upper 90's but not triple digits. Upper 90's isn't bad but when he was throwing triple digits in Japan the modest drop could be telling something. I haven't heard reports about fatigue or soreness. But I suppose the improvement is a good sign. I was one who thought he should be sent down to work on his pitches.
