The Los Angeles Dodgers lost to the San Francisco Giants, 3-1, on Sunday in their final home game of the season. LA fell to 88-68 on the year and snapped a four-game winning streak despite seven one-hit innings (and 10 strikeouts) from Emmet Sheehan.
In other news, the Dodgers lost a catcher ahead of the eventual defeat. A National League rival claimed the backstop off waivers after he made just one appearance in Dodger blue during his time with the organization.
Additionally, LA added a familiar veteran pitcher this week amid their bullpen struggles. The right-hander was designated for assignment earlier this month and didn’t see much success during the end of his Dodger tenure.
