Maybe Drew Rasmussen should sue for non-support,
Rasmussen, the pitcher for the Tampa Bay Rays, was impressive once again Tuesday night. On the other hand, the Rays left their bats in hibernation. They were tamed by Dodgers pitcher Justin Wrobleski.
The Rays managed just three hits in a 1-0 loss to the Dodgers, running their scorless streak to 16 innings. The Rays fell another game behind the Yankees in the AL East standings.
The Rays barely threatened against Wrobleski. They didn't manage an extra-base hitand were 0-3 with runners in scoring position.
The game's only run came when Shohei Ohtani homered on the first pitch he saw from Rasmussen.
Rasmussen went seven innings and allowed just one earned run, the first earned run he has given up in his last three starts.
The Rays are 13-21 in their last 34 games. The Rays are 1-4 on their current road trip.
All five of the Dodgers' runs in their two wins have come on home runs.
The Rays and Dodgers wrap up their series today at 3:10 pm. at Dodger Stadium. Shane McClanahan will start for the Rays againsts Ohtani.
