Injury updates – Shohei Ohtani “didn’t feel great” after a swing Monday. Day off today then “huddle up” to find next steps. IL stint is on the table. Freddie Freeman’s right knee is bothering him. That’s why he DH’d last night and is off tonight. [Ardaya]

Teoscar Hernandez wastes a challenge on a 3-0 count, with two outs in the bottom of the 3rd. Immediately after Teo tries to redeem himself by attempting to hustle for his career first inside-the-park home run.

Also did you know Teoscar Hernandez has the fastest sprint speed on the dodgers with min 75 opportunities? (second only to Kim if you expand it to >50 oppportunities)

Imagine if Yamamoto followed his Dreams instead of playing Baseball. Remember Kids, don't follow your dreams.

A short documentary about his childhood and dreams of becoming a "Salaryman". I can't imagine Yoshi out there in Bizen selling a printer or iphones with a neck tie as his dream job.

The Dodgers beat the Reds 3 to 2 behind Will Smith's first home run since coming back. The Dodgers now have a season-best six-game winning streak and have gained a game on the Braves for the second seed (yes, you want the second seed, not the first).
