In a disappointing end to their series, the Los Angeles Dodgers fell to the Texas Rangers 5-2, despite winning the first two games. Roki Sasaki made his third start of the season, pitching four innings and allowing two runs while achieving a career-high of six strikeouts. Shohei Ohtani opened the scoring with a solo home run in the first inning, but the Dodgers struggled offensively thereafter. The Rangers took control with a strong performance from pitcher Jacob DeGrom, who allowed just one run over six innings and struck out nine batters. Texas capitalized on early opportunities, including a solo home run from Evan Carter and an RBI single from Brandon Nimmo. The Dodgers managed to cut the deficit to one run in the seventh inning but could not sustain the momentum. They will now prepare to face the New York Mets in their next series, which begins Monday at 7:10 p.m. PT.
