The Los Angeles Dodgers allowed 4 runs in the 6th inning and the Texas Rangers beat the Dodgers 4-1. After the highly contested series against the Padres the Dodgers looked like they ran out of gas in Texas. They did have some flight issues getting there according pitcher Brett Anderson.
You know what’s not great…taking off in San Diego and landing in LA when you’re supposed to be in route to Dallas.
