The Dodgers’ offense woke up on Saturday after getting blanked in the series opener but LA still lost to the red-hot Brewers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

After getting\u00a0shut out by the Milwaukee Brewers\u00a0in the series opener, the\u00a0Los Angeles Dodgers\u2019 offense came to life on Saturday.<\/p>\n

But despite scoring seven runs, the Dodgers still couldn\u2019t get the victory. Los Angeles has now lost five straight games to a red-hot Brewers team.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe pitching staff was hanging breaking balls and this Milwaukee team was not missing them. And they\u2019re hitting the ball over the fence,\u201d Hershiser noted, per SportsNet LA.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Dodgers get three home runs, don\u2019t win. Get seven runs, don\u2019t win. At least half the team\u2019s feeling good about where they\u2019re at going into tomorrow,\u201d he added.<\/em><\/p>\n

The offensive outburst was a welcome sign for Dodgers fans.\u00a0Shohei Ohtani ended the drought with a big two-run blast in the third inning, helping LA score seven runs for just the second time in the last 18 games.<\/p>\n

The Dodgers\u2019 July slump has loosened the team\u2019s stranglehold on the division. Los Angeles had a nine-game lead in the NL West on July 3. After their latest loss on Saturday, the lead has been cut in half. The San Diego Padres are now just 4.5 games behind the Dodgers.<\/p>\n

The Brewers, on the other hand, have now won nine-straight games and 10 of their last 11. The hot streak has Milwaukee in the thick of the NL Central race as the team is just one game behind the Chicago Cubs.<\/p>\n

The Dodgers will send future Hall of Famer Clayton Kershaw to the mound on Sunday, hoping he can lead the team to a win over the Brewers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think Clayton\u2019s gotta make some pitches. I\u2019m not sure he\u2019s gonna get a lot of swing-and-miss against this team but he can get a lot of weak contact. And if he continues to hit his spots, hopefully he can turn this tide around,\u201d Hershiser advised.<\/p>\n

The Brewers will counter Kershaw with Jose Quintana. In his last outing, the veteran starter dominated the Dodgers, allowing one run on two hits in six innings.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
