The Los Angeles Dodgers just completed a three-game sweep of the Miami Marlins at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers outscored the Marlins 17-6 in an overall dominant performance, one that was especially fulfilling for Dodgers infielder Miguel Rojas. Rojas spent eight years of his career with the Marlins, and became their de facto team captain as his career went on. However, one young player on the Marlins, Jazz Chisholm Jr., seemed to have some issues with how Rojas was running things. In March, Chisholm went on The Pivot Podcast and had a lot of choice words for the former Marlins’ team captain, w ..read more

After a disastrous debut against the San Diego Padres in South Korea, Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto has settled into his role. He ended April with a sub-3.00 earned run average; it’s down to 2.79 after an outstanding eight-inning start Tuesday against the Marlins. In his May 1 start against the Arizona Diamondbacks, Yamamoto displayed his comfort level when catcher Austin Barnes jogged out to the mound without an interpreter and Yamamoto promptly broke out a slider — a pitch that he had thrown early in his career in Japan, but never with the Dodgers. “I think it’s an ..read more

Tyler Glasnow, who starts the opener of the Dodgers’ series in San Diego on Friday, has put together a string of good starts. In his most recent start last Saturday, the Dodgers beat the Atlanta Braves 11-2. The right-hander tossed seven innings, allowed only two runs, and struck out 10 batters in another dominant start. After the game, when speaking with the media, Glasnow commented on just trying to string together one good start after another: “It’s great. (I’m just) trying to piece them all together and have good start after good start. It’s the only thing I’m focused on. I think a lot o ..read more

The volunteer first base coach for the Reds of Milton Little League in Massachusetts looks like any kid’s dad who enjoys being on the diamond with his son. This coach isn’t an ordinary dad, though. He has 90 Major League wins on his resumé and has pitched in a couple of World Series. Former Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Rich Hill is enjoying his time coaching his son Brice, which is why he decided not to play for a major league organization this spring. He even turned down three contract offers to spend extra time with his son, who is in his last season of Little League ball. “I’ve onl ..read more
