They were shut out again, 3-0. First back-to-back shutouts since 2024. They did lose three in a row between the two ten game winning streaks, so there's that. Unfortunately, the next opponent is Atlanta in Atlanta. We'll see if they can bounce back right away or if it will take a while.

I fell asleep in the middle of it and when I woke up, it was over. 😟

I hope this is just a temporary setback. The good news is they're still ahead of the Cardinals. Tomorrow is an off day and hopefully, they'll get back on track in Atlanta on Tuesday.

Higher than the Dodgers, Baby! Talk about slumps.

Keep the faith, we’re not even close to the All-Star break yet.
