In recent matchups, the Dodgers have demonstrated a remarkable ability to bounce back and secure victories under pressure. Their performance against the Detroit Tigers on July 14th is a testament to their tenacity, where despite accumulating only 7 hits and committing 2 errors, they managed a win with 3 runs. This game highlighted not just their ability to capitalize on crucial moments but also underscored some areas needing improvement.


The following game on July 13th saw the Dodgers ramp up their offense significantly, amassing 12 hits and scoring an impressive 9 runs. This offensive explosion was complemented by solid fielding, with only one error recorded. However, it was their bullpen that stole the show in another encounter with the Tigers on July 12th; despite allowing no earned runs over more than five innings pitched and showcasing a stellar WHIP of just over one.
