Dodgers win rubber game of series as bullpen comes through to make a one-run lead hold up in win over A's.

The Los Angeles Dodgers got back in the win column with a 10-0 blowout victory over the Oakland Athletics, receiving contributions on both sides of the ball from Kiké Hernández. Hernández had a big game at the plate as he went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI and one walk. Hernández retired the first two batters faced on two pitches before stranding a single to wrap up the Dodgers' win. According to STATS, Hernández became the first player in the Modern Era (since 1901) of MLB history to have at least three hits and pitch in a shutout victory.

Ohtani is the first Dodger to post a 30-30 season since Matt Kemp in 2011.

Jack Flaherty made a splashy Los Angeles Dodgers debut, Gavin Lux provided an early cushion with a two-run single and the National League West leaders rebounded from a series-opening loss to thump the host Oakland Athletics 10-0 on Saturday night. Acquired earlier in the week from the Detroit Tigers, Flaherty (8-5) worked six innings and combined with three relievers -- including position player Enrique Hernandez in the ninth inning -- for the Dodgers' 10th shutout of the season.

The Dodgers' trade deadline deal is immediately paying off, with Jack Flaherty performing well during a win over the Oakland Athletics on Saturday.

Jack Flaherty pitched six sharp innings in his Dodgers debut and Los Angeles snapped a three-game losing streak by beating the Oakland Athletics 10-0 on Saturday night. Shohei Ohtani stole three bases for Los Angeles to give him 31 on the season to go with his 33 homers. This is just the fourth time a Dodgers player reached the 30-30 club in a season and only three players in the majors doing it faster than Ohtani, who accomplished it in the 111th game of the season.

The 2024 Giants have little room for error when their strong starting rotation hits a speed bump.

Right-hander Jack Flaherty has drawn an unfriendly foe for his first start with Los Angeles Dodgers as the National League West leaders continue their three-game series against the host Oakland Athletics on Saturday. The A's continued their impressive play of late in Friday's series opener, getting home runs from Shea Langeliers, Seth Brown and Brent Rooker in a 6-5 victory.
