Dodgers' Streak Snapped in 4-3 Loss to Braves
26 Aug
Summary
- Dodgers' six-game winning streak ended with a 4-3 loss.
- Tyler Glasnow returned, allowing three runs in the first inning.
- Alek Thomas contributed an RBI single in his new team's defeat.
The Los Angeles Dodgers saw their six-game winning streak come to an end on Tuesday, suffering a narrow 4-3 loss to the Atlanta Braves. The game concluded with the Dodgers leaving the tying runner stranded on third base.
Tuesday marked the return of pitcher Tyler Glasnow to the mound for his first start since May 6. After a challenging first inning where he surrendered three earned runs, Glasnow regrouped, retiring the Braves without allowing further runs over his five innings pitched. He finished with seven strikeouts and no walks.
In a bright spot for the Dodgers, outfielder Alek Thomas, a recent acquisition, made an impact. Thomas put the Dodgers on the board in the second inning with an RBI single. He has demonstrated solid performance early in his tenure with the team.
Looking ahead, Shohei Ohtani is on track for a potential return to pitching. He is scheduled for another bullpen session this week, with a possible short start over the weekend in Detroit.
