Game 14, 2022

Posted on by

Dodgers at Padres, 5:40 PM PDT, TV: BS San Diego, MLBN (out-of-market only), SPNLA

Lefty Tyler Anderson (1-0, 2.25 ERA) pitches for the Dodgers; he’ll face old friend RHP Yu Darvish (1-1, 6.28 ERA) of the Padres. Anderson has pitched four innings in each of his two games this season, both in relief of Tony Gonsolin. Today, with Andrew Heaney on the IL, he gets his first start of the year. Darvish has been up and down, as his W-L record and ERA show. In his first start he had a six-inning no-decision; in his next he got hammered and went only 1 2/3 innings, giving up nine runs on eight hits (leading me to ask why he was left in so long). Then in his third start he went 6 2/3 innings in which he gave up just one run on four hits.

Today in Dodgers’ history:

  • 1958 In a 7-6 loss to Chicago at the LA Coliseum, two Dodger mainstays from Brooklyn reach career milestones. First baseman Gil Hodges, who will finish his 18-year major league tenure with 370 home runs on his way to the Hall of Fame, hits his 300th career round-tripper, and Captain Pee Wee Reese, a future Hall of Fame shortstop himself, plays in his 2000th game.
  • 1999 Fernando Tatis becomes the only player in baseball history to hit two grand slams in one inning when he collects eight RBIs in one frame to breaks the old record of six. The Cardinal third baseman hits both off Dodger starter Chan Ho Park in an 11-run third of the team’s 12-5 victory at Chavez Ravine.
  • 2000 The Dodgers complete a sweep of the Reds to notch their 1,000th win over baseball’s oldest professional franchise. Since 1970, Los Angeles is the only National League franchise to play over .500 ball (120-115) in Cincinnati (Riverfront Stadium/Cinergy Field).

  6. Darvish really reduced his pitch-per-inning count after the second inning. But how good is San Diego’s bullpen?

  8. Out to a long late dinner so I missed all of this game – sounds like it was close and lost by a base-running misread. Oh well.

    • Had Darvish on the ropes early and couldn’t put him away. Profar made and unbelievable throw to get Taylor. Gotta solve the lefty Manaea today.

  9. I love Taylor”s aggressiveness, but he failed to properly gauge the risk/reward by trying to take third on the fly ball to left.

  14. I know every reliever can falter at any time, but for whatever reason – Hudson makes me nervous when he comes in.

    But he did fine that inning.

  43. Lots of game left but I kinda wonder if this might not be the best night for the Dodgers. It’s not always easy to beat the same team 11 times in a row.

  45. Unfortunate that the Dodgers are down in this game considering the number of pitches thrown and number of at bats they have had.
