LOS ANGELES —Game three of the four-game series between the Dodgers and San Francisco Giants comes Wednesday night at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, with a left-handed starting pitcher on the mound for the first (and only scheduled) time in this set.
That’s Robbie Ray for San Francisco, with a 2.76 ERA and 4.15 xERA in his eight starts. The Giants have lost all three of his starts on the road, though not necessarily of his doing, with a 4.15 ERA in 17 1/3 innings, not allowing more than three runs in any of those starts.
Wednesday figures to be a planned non-start for Mookie Betts, who was activated off the injured list on Monday after missing 32 games with a strained right oblique. Look for Miguel Rojas to start at shortstop against Ray.
Shohei Ohtani starts for the Dodgers on the mound. He won’t hit on Thursday, and might also not hit on Wednesday while he’s pitching.
“It might be a good thing to take a little bit of a load off his plate offensively,” manager Dave Roberts said Tuesday afternoon.
