    Roki Sasaki-Austin Barnes pairing is nothing personal, Dodgers’ Dave Roberts says
    LOS ANGELES — It’s more than a coincidence. But it’s less than a commitment.
    For the second consecutive start, Austin Barnes was paired with Roki Sasaki. Barnes has also caught Sasaki’s bullpens recently. But he is not Sasaki’s ‘personal catcher,’ Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said.
    “They’ve spent a lot of time together,” Roberts acknowledged. “It’s not like a dedicated battery at all. But I just felt that Roki had a good one

    Dodgers beat Pirates with late homers to end 3-game skid
    LOS ANGELES — Shohei Ohtani lit the fuse for a double dose of Hernandez and the Dodgers found the offense they sensed was coming all along.
    Teoscar’s Hernandez’s go-ahead home run in the eighth inning came just before a three-home run homer from Kiké Hernandez in a four-run eighth inning. Ohtani set the stage for both with three extra-base hits and two runs scored to power an 8-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates that ended a three-game losing streak.

    The energy created simply in anticipation of a Shohei Ohtani at-bat is enough to prove how much the Dodgers’ left-side production matters.
    Yet, heading into Saturday’s game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, it had been the Dodgers’ left-handed hitters who had been creating wild swings of inconsistency in the offense.

    The boy’s parents came from Los Angeles to Del Mar each summer for the races and rented a condo near the track. As it happened, Jude Feld, the adult in our story, was a horse trainer who was renting in the same complex.

They also didn’t lose a single game in regulation during which they scored three or more goals, that was until Friday’s 7-4 faltering.
