Kaj Betts, age 2, was supposed to throw the ceremonial first pitch to his father on Mookie Betts bobblehead night. Instead the adorable tyke made a break for right field.

Columnist Dylan Hernández writes that Roki Sasaki can still become everything the Dodgers envisioned, but his path to greatness has become infinitely more complicated.

Dodgers open home stand with a bad loss to Athletics, but announce that Clayton Kershaw will start Saturday against the Angels.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said pitcher Roki Sasaki reported feeling sore after making his first MLB start following five days of rest.

Pete Rose was posthumously removed from MLB's ineligible list, making induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame possible for the all-time hits leader.

Roki Sasaki has struggled to consistently throw the ball hard, averaging just 96 mph with his four-seamer this season while sometimes dropping down to the 92-93 mph range.

Long before becoming the skipper of the Colorado Rockies sinking ship, Bud Black was a decorated Angels pitching coach and respected San Diego Padres manager.

In his last 16 games, Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman is batting .475 with a 1.374 OPS, one of the most productive stretches of his career.

Tony Gonsolin pitches five scoreless innings and Freddie Freeman has four hits as Dodgers end 10-game trip with win over Arizona.

The Dodgers could not overcome a strong outing from former Cy Young winner Corbin Burnes, sealing a 3-0 loss to the Diamondbacks Saturday in Phoenix.
