The unbeaten run by the Dodgers came to an end on Friday after sloppy base-running added to a 3-2 defeat to the Phillies, destabilizing their record at 8-1.
The Brooklyn Dodgers had their best start in 1955 and the team is yet to beat a franchise in history.
The Los Angeles Dodgers had some opportunities but were not able to convert them to success. Shohei Ohtani, typically given the green light to steal, made a controversial effort with Mookie Betts at the plate and two outs.
J.T. Realmuto, a catcher for the Phillies, threw him out, putting an end to the eighth-inning threat. Last year, Ohtani had a 93.7% steal success rate.
Andy Pages was picked off before now to put an end to the sixth, and the game ended with a fantastic strike-’em-out, throw-’em-out double play. Chris Taylor was seen stealing while Max Muncy struck out
Jordan Romano was hit a two-run homer off by Tommy Edman to right to bring the Los Angeles Dodgers within one.
Ohtani did not stop being hot despite the defeat. On Wednesday, he got a walk-off homer on his bobblehead night to defeat Atlanta.
In the same game, Realmuto threw out three runners in two games for the fourth time in his professional game.
