What a Tough Loss for the Dodgers! 
Our boys in blue put up a hard fight against the Cardinals, but it just wasn't enough as we fell short with a final score of 3-2. It was a pitcher's duel for most of the game, and the tension was palpable through all nine innings at Dodger Stadium!The Cardinals Strike First 
The starting innings were intense, with both teams' defenses working hard to keep the scoreboard clean. The Cardinals took an early lead in the 2nd inning with a solo homer from Masyn Winn. That was a tough one to swallow, and our bats were quiet for the most part through the first three innings.Freeman to the Rescue! 
In the bottom of the 4th, Freddie Freeman decided it was time to shine! Bringing the crowd to their feet with a wonderful home run to right center, tying the game at 1-1. Unfortunately, that was the only run to come our way until much later!Herrera Answers Back 
In the 8th inning, Ivan Herrera of the Cardinals delivered another crushing blow with a homer that put the Cards back in the lead with 2-1. Our guys weren't giving up just yet, though!Tension in the 8th and 9th Innings! 
With Teoscar Hernandez doubling in the bottom of the 8th and a smart move to bring in Esteury Ruiz as a pinch-runner, we managed to even the score at 2-2. Ruiz's hustle all the way from third on Andy Pages’ groundout showed that determination to win. It was a wild finish, and the game came down to the wire.Close but No Cigar...
Heading into the 9th inning, the Cardinals managed to score with a timely hit from Yohel Pozo, putting them up 3-2. We had hope in the bottom of the 9th, starting with a single from Shohei Ohtani, but the opportunity slipped away with Max Muncy's final liner caught in right field.The outcome certainly wasn’t what we had hoped for, but if there’s one thing we know, it’s that the Dodgers will bounce back! Let’s regroup and prepare to come out swinging again. Go Dodgers!
