Overview
- The Dodgers lost 4-3 to the Miami Marlins on Saturday, which snapped an eight-game winning streak and kept the team from clinching a postseason spot that day.
- Tyler Glasnow allowed four runs on five hits with four walks and seven strikeouts over four innings, was removed after issuing consecutive walks to start the fifth, and took the loss to fall to 4-1 on the season.
- Glasnow returned from the 60-day injured list on Aug. 25 and has shown strikeout upside but a clear control decline, posting a 4.91 ERA in his starts since activation and issuing many of his season's walks in a few bad outings against Miami.
- The Dodgers' offense began strong when Mookie Betts and Max Muncy hit back-to-back homers, then went mostly quiet until a ninth-inning rally that was extended by rookie Josue De Paula's walk in his second big-league game.
- The club now faces short-term questions about rotation stability and bullpen usage and will closely monitor Glasnow's next starts and how manager Dave Roberts manages starters' workloads as the Dodgers pursue a playoff berth.
