Yoshinobu Yamamoto strikes out 8 over 7 STRONG innings | 山本由伸 の圧巻パフォーマンス
Peel the curtain back a little bit further on Yoshino Yamamoto’s 2025 campaign. Eight starts at home compared to eight on the road. Oral much different in the RA department. Why do you think that is? You know, I just think it’s just coincidence. I don’t think it has anything to do. He loves pitching here at Dodger Stadium. Doesn’t mind pitching on the road you see with that 157 RA. And speaking of road starts, he’s talking about Yamamoto’s last one in Colorado. It was fantastic. Still two and two. The seventh pitch to Tauman is strike three. Got him with the split below the zone. League hitting 148 against Yamamoto’s split finger. And you can see why with this example. Looks like a fast ball at the knees and ends up by the ankles. Swings at the first pitch, chops it to third. Muny is there and throws down to first. Two gone. Yoshino in Colorado averaging right around 11 pitches an inning. He’s got a shot at that number here in the first and Tendi pops it up to short. Maxy is waiting there. So it’s a one, two, three. Top of the first for Yoshobu Yamamoto. It’s taken to left field. Conforto running toward the line and he’s there to make the catch inside the wall. Well read by Conorto in foul ground. Two away. It’s a nice play by Michael and it was a nice play by the fan down there that could have really got in the way, but he pulled off. It’s nice to see Dodger Blue move out of the way. Looking like he’s going to get it. Nope. Let the guy with the glove do it. And good feel from the fan as you alluded to. One, two. Got him. Swinging. Inning ending K for Yamamoto. Two punch outs and two scoreless innings so far. On the ground to short, gobbled up by Kim. sets his feet and throws high. Freddy is able to get the toe back down there for out number one.
A little bit of a rough hop out there at shortstop. Kind of got in the bread basket for Kim. Did a nice job recovering right there. You can see it kind of threw the timing off on the footwork.
Had another threeks. Five out of eight outs with the fast ball. And here it is sneaking it by him at 95. Up and away. But
he’s down on three pitches. Back-to- back punch outs for Yamamoto to finish a one, two, three, third. Strike three swinging. Fifth K for Yamamoto. Finishes the fourth, but the White Sox did get a run. So, it’s 51. And a splitter. Swung on and missed. And Baldwin is out swinging for the second time. Strikeout number six for Yamamoto. Love that lower split right down the middle. When it’s lower into the one of the corners of the other that you usually don’t get the hitter to offer, but down the middle, hard for them to lay off of. Yes, he did. This K comes in the breaking ball variety. It is not the split finger, but it is definitely a chase pitch. Looks like a little slider. Mike Tman top of the order in the air left field. Foul ground. Confordto before he hits the wall. Makes another catch. Second grab in foul ground tonight for Confordto. That’s a quick one, two, three, fifth for Yamamoto. Poke to right. It’ll hang up for Teay Oscar Hernandez. Fields his position beautifully yet again. Vargas is getting into it now. The 10th popped up. playable shallow right. The ball belongs to Teay Oscar Hernandez. Another one, two, three frame for Yoshino Yamamoto in the middle of the six. 6-1 Dodgers. Rojos couldn’t spoil that from Yamamoto. Another strike out. Another seven inning performance from the right-hander.
Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto shoved against the Chicago White Sox, striking out 8 while only allowing 3 hits, 1 walk, and 1 run.
