Summary
The Dodgers suffered an 11-1 loss to the Athletics, with Michael Conforto and Chris Taylor showing some offensive spark but failing to change the outcome. Conforto, struggling with a .153 average and 41 strikeouts, doubled three times, while Taylor’s limited play this season has made him a non-factor since signing a four-year contract. Starting pitcher Landon Knack struggled, allowing five runs and failing to complete five innings, as the team prepares for Clayton Kershaw’s return amid multiple pitching injuries.
