The Los Angeles Dodgers are reigning solo at the top of the NL West after a 6-0 win over the San Diego Padres on Saturday. The shutout put the Dodgers at a 70-53 record, with the team moving just in front of the 69-54 Padres with the win at Dodger Stadium.
The win came on the back of a solid night from Teoscar Hernández, who had a homer and an RBI sacrifice fly. On the mound, Blake Snell threw six shutout innings for the Dodgers, notching 62 strikes in 96 pitches and allowing five hits.

It didn’t take long for the Dodgers to get on the board, taking a 3-0 lead in the first inning. Hernández kicked off with a sacrifice fly that sent Shohei Ohtani home, before Michael Conforto hit a two-run RBI single.

Freddie Freeman added to that in the second inning, hitting another two-run RBI off a fielding error. In the fifth inning, a solo homer from Hernández — his 20th this season— brought L.A. to 6-0.
Padres starter Dylan Cease had a tough start to the game, allowing six walks in the first two innings and letting the Dodgers run up a 5-0 lead. He also ended with three errors, and only earned two strikes. Cease was taken out in the fourth inning after racking up 85 pitches, following Ohtani’s first hit of the game.

After a 3-2 win over the Padres on Friday that ended a four-game losing streak, the Dodgers officially lock up a series win. The two teams will face off again on Sunday to finish the three-game series, with Yu Darvish is set to start for San Diego and Tyler Glasnow set to take the mound for L.A.
But it won’t be long until they meet again: The Dodgers and Padres are set to play another three-game series in San Diego next week.

West Ham’s failure on the basics already has Graham Potter talking about bouncing back
Just as this was a scoreline that got worse and worse for West Ham United as the second half unfolded, it was a result that got worse and worse as it was digested by fans and neutrals alike on Saturday night.And West Ham face Chelsea next.That comes on Friday night at the London Stadium, and this was sufficiently damaging to West Ham as a team and as a club for manager Graham Potter — 90 minutes into the season — to be asked about “bouncing back”, if an immediate response is required against their London rivals. Even the club’s media asked him. It’s how bad this felt by 5pm.Advertisement“We have to bounce back with a performance, for sure,” Potter replied. “It’s one game — I understand the scoreline doesn’t make it look pretty for us at all. We have to […]
Sunderland and the Stadium of Light get the emotional exorcism they need on Premier League return
The Stadium of Light, for so long, was where Premier League aspirations came to die. There were fleeting moments of joy, enough to help its tenants stage a series of escapes from relegation to the Championship, but it became a venue synonymous with Sunderland’s perennial struggle.Just 18 wins came from the last 76 games played on Wearside before the Premier League lights were turned off in the spring of 2017. None at all were found in the final 13. Sunderland’s home became listless and drab, where even the energy to complain had been sapped.AdvertisementEight years away from the Premier League dragged Sunderland to darker places still, down to their historic nadirs of League One, but in a city by the sea is a club and its fans now riding a wave.An opening day victory over West Ham United brought the […]
Match of the Day review: Same product, slightly different appearance, but it just felt right
The last time that Match of the Day had a new permanent presenter, Oasis were one of the biggest bands in the country, baggy jeans were fashionable, Arsenal had just finished runners-up in the Premier League and Sunderland were back in the top flight.So, as Mark Chapman will say later, the more things change, the more things stay the same. For 1999 and Gary Lineker, read 2025 and Chapman, Gabby Logan and Kelly Cates, a trio of new presenters who, appropriately for the modern game, will adopt a squad rotation system on hosting duties for Match of the Day’s Saturday and Sunday shows (the MOTD 2 name has been dropped).AdvertisementLineker’s departure after 26 years as presenter gave the BBC an ideal opportunity, if they wished, to revamp the country’s longest-running football show.So what did we get from this exciting first […]
