LOS ANGELES -- As the D-backs took long at-bats and his command wavered in the fifth inning, Tyler Glasnow showed clear frustration on his face. After each misthrow, he would yell into his glove.

In the end, it was a second consecutive frustrating outing from Glasnow, who allowed three runs over five innings in the Dodgers’ 6-0 loss to the D-backs on Wednesday at Dodger Stadium.

“It was fine in the beginning, and that fifth inning, it just got away from me,” Glasnow said. “I think just looking back and trying to take what I did in the first four into my next start and trying to figure out why I was late, and try to wash it and go into the next one.”

As Glasnow mentioned, the right-hander kept the D-backs off the board through four innings, though Arizona was able to get his pitch count higher than he would like. Glasnow had his usual swing-and-miss stuff, getting 17 whiffs through five innings, including 10 on his secondary pitches.

But in the fifth, Glasnow got behind in counts and lost track of his mechanics, he said. Corbin Carroll and the D-backs took full advantage of it as the 2023 National League Rookie of the Year plated two runs with a triple. Carroll then came around to score on a Glasnow wild pitch.

Through the first two months of the season, Glasnow has been the Dodgers’ best starter. He’s on pace to record more than 250 strikeouts. But over his last two starts, Glasnow has allowed seven runs over 10 innings.

“He got [Carroll] on a leverage count and hung the breaking ball,” said Dodgers manager Dave Roberts. “That’s a situation where that was a big hit by them and obviously was the difference in the ballgame, as far as kind of creating a little bit of space. And you could see Tyler getting frustrated, but we just got to kind of regroup and get ready for that next one.”

Regardless of Glasnow’s performance on Wednesday, the Dodgers’ offense also didn’t do enough to win, getting shut out for just the third time this season. The Dodgers had their fair share of opportunities, however, going 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position.

“They did a good job,” said Dodgers second baseman Gavin Lux, who has back-to-back multihit games for the second time this season. “We had some chances to put a couple of runs on the board, and we didn’t. That’s just how baseball goes. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. I think the at-bats were fine, we just didn’t come through with guys in scoring position, but sometimes that’s just how it goes.”

Coming into the series against the D-backs, the Dodgers had an opportunity to cap off what would’ve been a stellar 13-game stretch that came with no off-days. Instead, the Dodgers lost two of three to the D-backs and finished 7-6 during that span.

“I thought it was gonna be great. You know, we were 7-4 for a minute there,” Roberts said. “And then the last few games, I just thought we just didn't play well, didn't swing the bat, and we lost a series. I think overall, I thought it was still a good stretch for us, I do, but there's certainly a lot of things that we can be better at, I think, [in] each facet of the game. But I think, by and large, the pitching has been really solid. And so, that's something I'm gonna hang my hat on.”

Outside of allowing 13 runs over their last two games, the Dodgers’ pitching staff showed well over the last 13 games. Before the two losses to the D-backs, the Dodgers had allowed just 32 runs over their previous 11 games. Offensively, the Dodgers were a bit more inconsistent, especially once Max Muncy went on the injured list with a right oblique strain on Friday.

Over their last eight games, the Dodgers were held to four runs or fewer six times. Still, the Dodgers are 14 games over .500, and they were able to survive one of their toughest stretches of the season.

“It’s tough,” Lux said of playing 13 in a row. “It’s not like none of us have done that before, but at the same time it’s a long stretch of games, and it’ll probably be good to have a little day off tomorrow, a travel day, and reset a little bit and just recover.”
