Philadelphia – The best start in the history of Dodgers remains with Brooklyn.
The World Series Los Angeles Dodgers champion got out of a shot to maintain their undefeated season alive during a 3-2 defeat against the phillies of Philadelphia on Friday which stuck them at 8-1 this season.
The Brooklyn Dodgers experienced a 10-0 start in 1955.
This year’s dodgers can blame their first defeat on sloppy and silly Baserunning.
“When you give a good team and shorten the match,” said manager Dave Roberts, “then it’s hard to win. It’s hard to beat a good team.
Shohei Ohtani always has the green light to run, but the superstar of the dodgers made the confusing decision to try to steal the second base with two withdrawals in the eighth round and eight times Mookie Betts All-Star on the plate.
The Phillies recipient, JT Realmuto, nailed it to the second row to end the threat.
Ohtani had a basic success rate of 93.7% of the base last season, third of the leading in the majors.
“With Shohei in this situation, you must make sure you are safe,” said Roberts. “Realmuto is one of the best launchers in the game. When you broke three with marble mookie, you need to make sure you are safe if you are going to go.”
Dodgers are champions for a reason and would not easily descend.
Tommy Edman struck a two-point circuit, his fifth already this season, without withdrawal against the LEVER of Phillies Jordan Romano to do so 3-2, while the Dodgers avoided being excluded for the first time since July 26. Romano then escaped a double launch couple kick to finish the game.
Pinche-Hitter Max Muncy Whiffe and Pinch-Runner Chris Taylor were second.
“Chris, right there, has tried his luck,” said Roberts. “Unfortunately, Realmuto made another big throw.”
For more embarrassment of the base, Andy Pages was chosen to finish the sixth round.
“We hate losing but I think it goes to the way we play,” said Roberts. “By giving these guys three withdrawals on the basics, it is difficult to win when you play eight sleeves on the offensive side. This is something that we have to clean.”
Realmuto has now rejected three runners in two games for the fifth time in his career and the first time since 2022.
“The Ohtani surprised me a little just because Mookie hit,” said Realmuto. “When Chris ran, I had a pretty good idea that he was going to try to run because he is the link and he is generally a very good stolen guy.”
Everything had gone well for dodgers this season.
Ohtani hit a circuit at the ninth round of his Bobblehead evening, lifting the dodgers above the Atlanta Braves 6-5 then without empty, giving them the best start of all time by a champion in title of the World Series. They dragged into seven games this season, but they already have two to come. Ohtani failed to score for the first time this season.
With the phillies at the top of 1-0 in the seventh, the starter Jesus Luzardo entered his only Jam of the game when he had two runners on the basis with two withdrawals. Luzardo, who made his fast ball vibrate in the 90s vibrate, made Kiké Hernández moved to a cursor who had another closed windows at Citizens Bank Park Rumaning to celebrate. Hernández died three times.
Leaving the Dodgers, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, withdrew five years and granted an unpaid round in six sleeves. The unprecedented race came on its own error. Yamamoto threw the ball into nauseating territory trying to win a Trea tuner trying to fly the third in the first round. The All-Star Copped Stop has jostled the house for an advance of 1-0.
Yamamoto launched at least six rounds without authorizing a deserved race for the fourth time in his career and the first time since last June against the Yankees.
