The Detroit Tigers walked off the Los Angeles Dodgers on August 29, leaving us with the same painful story we’ve been living: strong pitching, anemic offense, a one-run loss. This was our fifth consecutive one-run game, and we’re now just 1-4 in those situations. When you can’t score runs, it doesn’t matter how well your arms pitch. That’s what happened here, per Dodgers Blue.

This game fits the pattern we’ve watched develop over the past week. Our pitching staff delivered again—that part has been solid. But the lineup couldn’t push across enough runs to win, and when you’re playing that kind of baseball against a team like Detroit, you lose. One-run games are coin flips when you’re playing .250 baseball at the plate.

The Dodgers and Tigers will finish their series tomorrow. At this point, it’s hard to see how we break out of this offensive funk without some real adjustments. The pitching can only carry you so far, and we’re testing the limits of that principle right now.
