Analyzing Recent Performances


The Dodgers have been on a remarkable streak, showcasing their ability to dominate both offensively and defensively. In their last game against the Detroit Tigers on March 29, 2025, they secured a convincing win with 7 runs from just 7 hits, underlining their efficiency at converting opportunities into scores. Their pitching staff also excelled, maintaining a tight ERA of 3.0 across nine innings and striking out nearly 13 batters per nine innings—a testament to their ability to suppress opposing hitters.


Notably, the bullpen's performance was stellar with an ERA of just over 1.2 in over seven innings pitched, highlighting their crucial role in sealing victories for the team. This level of performance has been consistent throughout their recent games; for example, during another clash with the Tigers on March 28th and March 27th respectively where they emerged victorious each time.
