Tanner Scott Blows Save on Sunday
Tanner Scott recorded his major league-worst seventh blown save in a 5-2 win over the San Francisco Giants on Sunday. Leading 2-0, the Dodgers called on Scott to put away the Giants in the bottom of the ninth inning. The left-hander retired Willy Adames to lead off the frame, but Matt Chapman reached on a single and Luis Matos tied the game with a 424-foot home run. Scott got out of the inning without surrendering any more runs, and the Dodgers overcame his poor performance to win in 11 innings. They'll go into the second half of the season in first place in the NL West, though there may be some concerns regarding Scott. After yielding just three homers in 72 innings last season, Scott has already coughed up eight in 44 frames this year. Thanks largely to his problems keeping the ball in the yard, Scott's ERA has surged from 1.75 in 2024 to 4.09 in 2025. He still boasts a 1.14 WHIP with 49 strikeouts against eight walks, but it hasn't led to the top-tier run prevention that the Dodgers or fantasy managers expected.
