Scouting Report: Dodgers: Wolf pitcked up his seventh save in a win over the Pirates, but it wasn’t pretty. He trailed in the first inning, failed to protect a 4-2 lead and still came away with the win because Russell Martin slugged a tie-breaking homer. Wolf needed 95 pitches to get through only five innings and four of the seven hits he allowed went for extra bases. It matched his shortest start of the season and equaled the amount of runs he’d allowed in the previous four starts.Padres: Maddux rebounded nicely from two rough starts that saw him allow a combined 10 earned runs on 21 hits. But he allowed just two runs (one unearned) on nine hits over 6 2/3 innings against the Pirates on May 31. Maddux was hit hard early but he appeared to get his touch back as the game went on. He walked just one batter and struck out four. |
