The Dodgers overcame Manny Machado (and Joe Kelly) last night, as they got to Kirby Yates once again and recorded their seventh win in the last nine games. Today, the Dodgers look for a sweep before returning home for seven games against NL East opponents and a pair of games against these Padres.
Kenta Maeda starts for the Dodgers, making this his second straight Cinco de Mayo start. I know I used Cinco de Maeda for the thread last year, but it’s not my fault that (a) I keep getting threads on Cinco de Mayo and (b) the Dodgers keep letting Maeda start on Cinco de Mayo.
