  • Goes yard again
    Ramirez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Monday's 2-1 win over the Tigers.

  • Teoscar Hernández swats ninth homer of season
    Teoscar Hernández hit a solo homer while going 2-for-4 in a win over the Marlins on Monday.

    Advice: He also singled. It’s the ninth homer of the season for Hernández, and one of four the Dodgers hit off Marlins starter Roddery Muñoz in Monday’s victory. The outfielder has also driven in 26 runs over 37 games with a decent — if unspectacular — slash of .259/.325/.490. So far, so good in Hernández’s first season as a member of the Dodgers.

    Edwin Díaz hurled a perfect ninth inning on Monday against the Cardinals to collect his fifth save of the season.

    Advice: Díaz got the call to protect a narrow one-run margin in the final frame during Monday’s series opener at Busch Stadium and needed just 11 pitches (seven strikes) to slam the door. He struck out Alec Burleson before coaxing ground outs from Brendan Donovan and Masyn Winn to end the contest. He’s converted five of his six save chances this season to go along with a 2.45 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and sparkling 22/4 K/BB ratio across 14 2/3 innings (14 appearances) this season.

  • Yu Darvish spins five scoreless frames vs. Cubs
    Yu Darvish tossed five shutout innings on Monday in a no-decision against the Cubs.

He generated 15 swinging strikes and finished with a respectable 28 percent CSW, despite throwing 62 of 83 pitches for strikes. He’ll bring a strong 2.94 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 30/11 K/BB ratio across 33 2/3 innings (seven starts) into a challenging matchup on Sunday against the division-rival Dodgers.
