Dodgers routed by Braves as Jack Flaherty lasts just three innings

Flaherty gave up four runs in the first three innings and the Dodgers lost for the fourth time in their past five games.

Dodgers pitcher Jack Flaherty throws in in the first inning of a baseball game against the Atlanta Braves, Saturday, Sept. 14, 2024, in Atlanta. ATLANTA – As the Dodgers’ starting rotation has crumbled around him, the Dodgers thought they could at least count on Jack Flaherty.

Over the past five games, the bullpen has pitched more innings than the starting pitchers – and the starters have a 10.30 ERA in those games. The Dodgers right-hander worked around a Whit Merrifield double in the second inning but ran into more trouble in the third. Another walk extended the inning, forcing Flaherty to throw 44 pitches. That put the finishing touches on his shortest start since last August with the Baltimore Orioles. The four runs allowed matched the most he has given up in eight starts as a Dodger.
