The Dodgers had their 6-game winning streak snapped on Friday night in Pittsburgh 8-6, despite four hits from the National League Rookie of the Year front-runner.
Nick Tepesch got the start for the Dodgers. His outing wasn’t surprising in the least:
- 4 IP, 7 H, 5 R/ER, 0 BB, 3 K, 1 HR, 66 pitches, 48 strikes, 4/2 GO/AO
Even with the Pirates struggling this season, they were still able to jump all over Tepesch in the second inning. Sean Rodriguez and John Jaso had back-to-back run-producing singles to put Pittsburgh up 3-0.
