The Dodgers had a quite a day. They learned all about Ro Day, found out that the bottom of the Pirates’ order can be very annoying, and watched the Pirates run wild on the bases. And they lost to the Pirates, 8-1.
Roansy Contreras held LA hitless until Austin Wynns led off the sixth with a single. After Contreras fanned Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman singled to put two on, but Contreras got the next two batters to fly out.
The only other Dodger threat came an inning earlier, on a walk and a one-out steal. Contreras ended it by striking out last night’s villain, Chris Taylor, and getting a fly out.
