The latest happenings concerning the Dodgers.

1. Joe Kelly struggles with his command

Dodger fans are used to seeing reliever Joe Kelly struggle with his command on the mound, but earlier this week he shattered a window when a pitch got away from him in his backyard. There was literally a giant bulls-eye for him to hit, and he missed it.

The right-hander later explained on The Bradfo Sho podcast that he was throwing a CleanFuego, which is “hard as a rock” and resembles a baseball cut in half.
