As the ball drifted toward the right-center wall, the rookie outfielder gave chase, only to pull up short as the ball disappeared into the seats. To some, it looked like Pages quit on the play. In reality, he <a href="https://www.mlb.com/news/andy-pages-play-yoshinobu-yamamoto-no-hit-bid" rel="noopener">never had a chance.</a></p><p>The replay angles made Holliday’s Statcast-projected 362-foot shot appear catchable. But multiple Orioles staffers later confirmed that the ball cleared the wall and landed on a black railing roughly four feet behind the fence and about 18 inches higher. That positioning meant Pages would have needed superhuman reach to even touch it.</p><p>“I’d like to think that if there was any chance to make a play on a no-hitter play that you would just exhaust every effort,” manager Dave Roberts said afterward. “But again, I couldn’t tell, and I refuse to go back and look at it.” The reality is clear: short of growing Stretch Armstrong arms mid-sprint, Pages couldn’t have saved Yamamoto.</p><h2><b>Dodgers waste Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s near no-hitter</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Yoshinobu-Yamamoto_db7e47.jpg"></figure><p>Instead, the Dodgers watched Holliday’s homer flip a potential milestone into another gut punch. Yamamoto had been dazzling, mixing elevated fastballs with his trademark splitter and curveball. The Japanese ace struck out Alex Jackson and induced a flyout from Coby Mayo before Holliday’s swing spoiled it all.</p><p>“The location wasn’t bad,” Yamamoto said through an interpreter. “His swing, he just put a good swing on it.” His catcher for the night, Ben Rortvedt, agreed: “He didn’t get all of it, but he got enough to poke it out.”</p><p>What should have been a crowning moment unraveled into catastrophe. The Dodgers’ bullpen, already reeling from weeks of struggles, failed spectacularly. Blake Treinen let a two-out rally snowball into chaos, hitting Gunnar Henderson, walking two more, and forcing Roberts to summon closer Tanner Scott.</p><p>One night after blowing a save, Scott surrendered Emmanuel Rivera’s walk-off single, capping a 4–3 collapse that marked the Dodgers’ fifth straight loss. “I have to get one flipping out, and I didn’t do it,” Treinen admitted. “Yama deserves better than that.”</p><p>The bigger picture is no less concerning. Los Angeles has dropped seven of its last eight against last-place clubs, with the bullpen responsible for most of the damage. Scott has now allowed 10 homers this year, and Treinen’s ERA ballooned over four. Roberts hasn’t committed to changes yet, though he admitted it may become necessary.</p><p>The whispers have even turned to Shohei Ohtani as a potential postseason reliever, a wild card that underscores how unsettled things have become. “We’re going to do whatever we feel gives us the best chance to win,” Roberts said. “I know Shohei would be open to whatever.”</p><p>For Yamamoto, the near-miss was another reminder of how fine the line between triumph and heartbreak can be. He nearly joined Hideo Nomo and Hisashi Iwakuma as the only Japanese-born pitchers with MLB no-hitters, only to watch it slip away on pitch 112.</p><p>The Dodgers’ $325 million investment showed exactly why they paid the price. But the bullpen, yet again, reminded everyone why the defending champs suddenly feel so vulnerable. From no-hitter dreams to walk-off nightmares, the Dodgers’ night ended with more questions than answers.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

After four straight losses, LA was riding Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s arm to a victory. The Dodgers ace was nearly flawless through 8.2 innings. Then everything fell apart. Yamamoto became the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/los-angeles-dodgers/dodgers-news-yoshinobu-yamamoto-suffers-shocking-twist-last-seen-1923">first pitcher in over 100 years</a> to lose a no-hitter with two outs in the ninth inning.</p><p>Handed a 3-1 lead and needing just one out, the Dodgers’ bullpen turned disappointment into catastrophe. The Orioles rallied for four runs in the ninth and walked off Los Angeles for the second straight game.</p><p>While manager <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/los-angeles-dodgers/dodgers-news-dave-roberts-no-complaints-after-shocking-loss-orioles">Dave Roberts had “no complaints”</a> following the devastating defeat, Blake Treinen was <a href="https://x.com/SportsNetLA/status/1964521197439504526" rel="noopener">not so forgiving</a> of his performance. “I had to get one flippin’ out, I didn’t do it… That’s a pretty low point for me, coming off the heels of kind of a tough stretch right here. But I’ve got to be better,” he said, per SportsNet LA.</p><h2><b>Blake Treinen earns the loss in Dodgers’ collapse</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Blake-Treinen-2.jpg"><figcaption>Kirby Lee-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>A visibly shaken Treinen stood in front of reporters after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/los-angeles-dodgers/dodgers-news-fans-erupt-waste-yoshinobu-yamamoto-near-no-hitter">blowing the save against the Orioles</a>, attempting to explain what went wrong. He loaded the bases and walked in a run before being taken out. Tanner Scott replaced him and gave up a walk-off, two-run single. When the smoke cleared, Treinen ended up with the loss, allowing three runs on one hit, two walks and a HBP.</p><p>“Obviously command [was missing]. There’s really no words. You’re paid to be a professional and at least throw strikes, and I didn’t do that. Cost one of the better outings I’ve ever seen in my career with Yama. He deserves better than that. Offense deserves better than that. Just really sucks to be on that end of it. Put Tanner in a tough position to come in, where he’s key-holed to have to throw strikes,” Treinen said.</p><p>Although it was an unusual circumstance, the 11th-year veteran didn’t blame the no-hitter bid for his performance. “Oddly enough, I’ve had to do it once before. Back in ‘18. Sean Manaea. So I kinda understand that I pace myself– That’s not an excuse for how I performed. I’ve just gotta be better. Throw strikes,” Treinen explained.</p><p>It’s been a rough series for the Dodgers’ bullpen so far. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/los-angeles-dodgers/dodgers-news-tanner-scott-blows-another-save-walk-off-home-run">Scott served up a walk-off home run</a> to the Orioles in the opener. And now both of LA’s top relievers failed to get a single out with a two-run lead in the ninth inning.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

And the division race is tightening as the San Diego Padres closed the gap in the NL West to one game with a win on Saturday.</p><p>Scott’s performance lent some credibility to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/los-angeles-dodgers/dodgers-news-tanner-scott-drops-baseball-hates-me-take-after-terrible-loss-to-orioles">his “baseball hates me” take</a>. Dodgers fans certainly aren’t feeling too kindly after the club’s latest brutal defeat.

When was the last time a Dodgers pitcher came one out away from a no-hitter, regardless of the outcome? Well, according to Sportsnet Stats, one would have to go <a href="https://x.com/SNstats/status/1964508168110969328" rel="noopener">all the way back to June 17, 1923</a>, when Dazzy Vance of the Brooklyn Robins befell a similar fate. Mind you, Vance still got the win in his contest, as the team eventually re-named the Dodgers beat down the Cincinnati Reds 9-0 for their <a href="https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CIN/CIN192306170.shtml" rel="noopener">28th win of the year</a>, but still, for that to happen twice to the same organization? Those are some minuscule odds.</p><p>From there, the Orioles slowly chipped away at the lead with Blake Treinin on the mound before Tanner Scott threw a 97 mph heater to Emmanuel Rivera that scored two runs and walked off the Dodgers for the second night in a row.</p><p>Had Yamamoto had the same run support as his counterpart from 102 years prior, he likely wold have still secured the win for the Dodgers against the Orioles, as scoring 10 runs in an inning is no easy task, but in the end, he was handed a no-decision, as Treinin will add the loss to his resume as LA looks to avoid the sweep in on Sunday.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Yoshinobu Yamamoto:</p><p>First Dodgers pitcher to have a no-hitter broken up with 2 outs in the 9th since Dazzy Vance on June 17, 1923 <a href="https://t.co/maFAlAZFlP">pic.twitter.com/maFAlAZFlP</a></p><p>— Sportsnet Stats (@SNstats) <a href="https://twitter.com/SNstats/status/1964508168110969328?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 7, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Yamamoto’s command was absolutely locked in, with the 27-year-old pitcher just barely surpassing his career-high in pitches despite going the furthest he’s ever gone in a game, and it looked like fans at Camden Yards were about to witness history.</p><p>Taking the mound in the ninth inning after watching his team secure three runs earlier in the game, Yamamoto took down Alex Jackson and Coby Mayo with ease on just four pitches, but after battling Jackson Holliday over three pitches, No. 18 surrendered his first hit and home run of the game on the fourth, with a 94 mph cutter <a href="https://x.com/MLB/status/1964507693949014080" rel="noopener">just leaving the ballpark in right field</a>.</p><p>And from there, well, disaster struck, with Blake Treinen surrendering a hit, a hit by a pitch, and a walk before walking Ryan Mountcastle with the bases loaded to make the game 3-2.
