Yamamoto is emerging as the new staff ace at just the right time for the Dodgers' depleted rotation
- Yoshinobu Yamamoto pitched six scoreless innings with one hit allowed, securing the Dodgers' 2-1 victory over the Braves on Friday at Truist Park in Atlanta.
- Yamamoto's emergence as the Dodgers' ace follows the rotation's injuries to Blake Snell, Tyler Glasnow, and Clayton Kershaw, challenging the team's pitching depth.
- He lowered his ERA to 0.90, the best in Major League Baseball, and carried a no-hit bid into the sixth inning before Austin Riley doubled with two outs.
- Manager Dave Roberts said, "He's turning himself into a staff ace," and reliever Evan Phillips called Yamamoto's dominance "not even the best version of Yama," highlighting his elite status.
- Yamamoto’s consistency and control suggest he provides stability for the Dodgers' depleted rotation and reinforces their competitive position despite offensive struggles and injuries.
