Dave Roberts decries Dodgers’ inability to play ‘clean baseball’ after latest costly loss to Brewers
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts called out his struggling club after a 6-2 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday…
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts expressed dissatisfaction with his team's performance following their recent 6-2 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. This defeat has jeopardized the Dodgers' chances of securing home-field advantage in the race for the National League's top record, as they currently trail Milwaukee by three games.
Roberts attributed the Dodgers' recent struggles to a lack of clean baseball, which also impacts their defense. The team's offensive production has been below average for the past few weeks, and they have been inconsistent in their at-bats, often chasing pitches and failing to capitalize on opportunities. The last two games against the Brewers resulted in only three runs on 11 hits and three walks.
Even star player Shohei Ohtani struggled, grounding into a double play with runners on base in the seventh inning.
