"Well, coming off an 18-inning marathon classic, the Dodgers and Blue Jays both somehow got off the mat today to play Game 4. Unfortunately, it was the Blue Jays who were up for today's game, getting and early lead and then adding on as the bats of the Dodgers continued to stay quiet in a 6-2 loss to even the series."
"To start, they actually pitched to Shohei Ohtani in the 1st, but Bieber walked him anyway on a full count after a pair of questionable calls. The trend of not taking advantage of that from yesterday continued, as two flyouts and a groundout followed from the heart of the order. Andy Pages then put a charge into one himself, but it too fell short on the track in left-center."
"Of course, Shohei Ohtani was on the bump for the Dodgers, the same guy who reached base nine times yesterday and had four extra-base hits. No big deal. Quite frankly, I was worried about him coming into this start as he was on his feet all day yesterday and was already cramping during the game. Thankfully, he started ideally in the 1st when he got Nathan Lukes to foul out on the second pitch on a great play by Enrique..."
The Blue Jays defeated the Dodgers 6-2 in Game 4 to even the series. Shane Bieber returned from surgery and pitched effectively despite the layoff. Bieber walked Shohei Ohtani on a full count after questionable calls, but the Dodgers failed to capitalize as two flyouts and a groundout followed from the heart of the order. Shohei Ohtani started on the mound for the Dodgers and had concerns about fatigue and cramping after heavy work the previous day. Ohtani delivered a mixed outing, recording strikeouts and a seven-pitch second inning before yielding a single and then hanging a sweeper that led to a run.
