Dodgers 4, Mets 2: Roki Sasaki sets a career high, Kyle Tucker breaks out (maybe?) - Dodgers Digest

What the report says

Dodgers Digest reported that the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the New York Mets 4-2 on July 24, 2026, behind a career-best swing-and-miss outing from Roki Sasaki and a late insurance homer by Kyle Tucker. The win moved Los Angeles to 66-38, described by the outlet as the best record in baseball, and extended the Dodgers’ winning streak to three games.

Sasaki allowed a first-inning walk to Juan Soto and a second-inning solo home run to Luis Robert Jr., but otherwise limited damage across seven innings. Dodgers Digest credited him with seven innings, three hits, one run, two walks and nine strikeouts on 94 pitches. The recap said he set a career high with 21 whiffs, including a sixth inning in which he struck out the side in order for the first time in his career.

The Dodgers’ offense had trouble converting chances against Mets starter Sean Manaea, but tied the game in the fourth on a Miguel Rojas sacrifice fly after singles by Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts. Los Angeles took the lead in the seventh when Shohei Ohtani drove in a run with a sacrifice fly after a failed safety squeeze still helped move runners into scoring position.

Tucker added the decisive cushion in the eighth, hitting a two-run homer off A.J. Minter after Freeman singled and stole second. Evan Phillips gave up a solo homer to Francisco Alvarez in the eighth, cutting the margin to 4-2, before Tanner Scott retired the Mets in order in the ninth for the save. Dodgers Digest said the series was set to continue on FOX with Yoshinobu Yamamoto scheduled to face Nolan McLean.
