| 4/10/25 | Dodgers close out choppy road trip with win. The Los Angeles Dodgers' eight-game winning streak to start the season --- their first since 1955, when the franchise was in Brooklyn --- didn't hint a choppy stretch could soon arrive. A week after heading to the East Coast for the first time this year, the Dodgers return home after dropping four of their first five games on a trip to Philadelphia and Washington before rallying for a 6-5 victory over the Nationals on Wednesday. “I don't want to say you're desperate for a win at times, but we didn't want to leave here without one,” relief pitcher Kirby Yates said. Yates (1-0) was part of a six-pitcher effort that combined for 6 2/3 innings of one-hit, shutout relief. Source: https://www.avpress.com/sports/dodgers-close-out-c... |
