Dodgers @ Giants July 12, 2025: Ohtani and Sheehan look to prevent eight game losing streak
Briefly

The Dodgers lost their seventh straight game, falling to the Giants 8-7 despite rallying late from an 8-2 deficit. Anthony Banda's poor performance caused the early deficit, but the offense managed to put together a five-run effort in two innings. Shohei Ohtani is set to pitch today for the Dodgers, with expectations of 2-3 innings. Hyeseong Kim delivered a standout performance, reaching second base three times. Landen Roupp is slated to pitch for the Giants, aiming to narrow the deficit in standings.
Chad mentioned it in his recap, but Anthony Banda dug too deep a hole for the offense to climb out of. They trailed 8-2 after the fifth inning, but managed to put up five runs across the sixth and seventh innings to make it close.
Shohei Ohtani will be on the mound today making his fifth start of the year. Dave Roberts said it'll be between 2-3 innings, which would be nice progress to see as we head into the break.
The star of the show was Hyeseong Kim, reaching second base in three of his four plate appearances. He singled twice and proceeded to steal second base both times.
Roupp has been very sharp as of late as he looks to send the Dodgers toward their eighth consecutive loss. Over his past four outings, he's racked up two wins, allowing just three earned runs across 20.1 innings pitched.
