Stumbles vs. Nats
Sasaki (0-1) didn't factor into the decision Sunday against the Nationals, allowing six runs on five hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out five.
Analisi
After holding Washington scoreless through two innings, Sasaki gave up a two-run homer to Luis Garcia in the third before the Nats put up another four runs in the fourth, punctuated by a James Wood three-run shot. However, the Dodgers would rally for an eventual 8-6 victory, saving Sasaki from his second loss. Through two starts, the right-hander has allowed seven runs on nine hits across nine innings while striking out nine. Sasaki is currently lined up to face the Rangers at home his next time out.

Posts promising start despite loss
Sasaki (0-1) took the loss against Cleveland on Monday, allowing one run on four hits and two walks while striking out four batters over four innings.
Analisi
Amidst Sasaki's disastrous spring, there was a lot of chatter about whether the young hurler was deserving of a spot in the Dodgers' rotation. The team decided to stick with him, and Sasaki mostly looked good in his first regular-season start in spite of being handed the defeat. The right-hander was particularly effective when he went to his cutter and splitter, getting seven whiffs on 40 pitches versus just two whiffs on the 38 fastballs he threw. Sasaki may not have the longest of leashes, so this outing should be counted as a success in contrast to how he pitched during most of the spring slate. His next start is projected to take place on the road against the Nationals.
