The Dodgers lost 4-2 to the Cleveland Guardians in a game at Dodger Stadium, with Roki Sasaki showing signs of improvement, despite a strong performance from the team's struggling offense. Despite Sasaki allowing just one run and walking only two batters, this was a significant improvement from his 14.50 ERA in spring training. The Dodgers' lineup also struggled, with an eight-run outburst on Opening Day. Over their last three games, the team has only totaled only 10 runs and 19 hits, while striking out 17 times and drawing only six walks. The team's performance has raised some questions about their fundamentals, with several uncharacteristic errors during the game. Despite a 3-1 win over the Guardians, the Dodgers' batting average is currently at 1-for-4, the worst in the early days of this season.
