The Dodgers entered today’s game looking for a series win and a winning streak, so of course they weren’t going to get either. There were fireworks early and fireworks late, but in extras the Mariners prevailed after the Dodgers balked the winning run in and fell 5-4.

Coming off a string of excellent starts, Rich Hill surprisingly started disasterously today, giving up a walk, an infield single, and another single for a run. Then he surrendered the big blow in the form of a three-run homer to right from Kyle Seager. After that four-run explosion, Hill did manage to keep his team in the game, providing five shutout innings afterward.
