The Los Angeles Dodgers faced a disappointing 5-0 defeat against the St. Louis Cardinals, marking their fourth shutout this season. Cardinals pitcher Sonny Gray excelled, delivering 6.1 scoreless innings. Despite accumulating 10 hits, the Dodgers were ineffective in critical moments, going 1-for-13 with runners in scoring position and leaving nine men stranded. Key opportunities arose in the third and eighth innings but resulted in missed chances as notable hitters struck out. Mookie Betts acknowledged the unpredictability of baseball, emphasizing the need to be resilient amid such frustrating games.
I wish every time somebody got on base, we could get a hit and score. I really wish every time runners are in scoring position, we could get those timely hits. But that's not how the game works.
The game is going to go through its ebbs and flows. You have to just kind of ride the wave. You can't jump off.
