On Sunday afternoon, Dodgers Manager Dave Roberts did not have to worry about a repeat of the previous night’s agony. Kenta Maeda gave up a single on his first pitch of a 3-0 loss to the Marlins, an outcome that Roberts would have preferred on Saturday, rather than dealing with the frustration of removing Rich Hill after seven perfect innings.
The shoe was on the other foot on Sunday. The Dodgers (80-62) did not record a hit off Marlins starter Jose Urena until there were two outs in the fifth inning.
