Dodgers pitcher Hyun-Jin Ryu couldn’t make it past the third inning Tuesday against the Tigers.
Things looked promising after the first inning, as Ryu took the mound with a five-run lead. He was able to pitch around a leadoff walk in his first inning of work. The second inning, however, brought some issues for Ryu. He opened the frame allowing five straight hits to the Tigers, which scored two runs. After getting a strikeout, Ryu again allowed two straight hits, which tied the game at 5-5. Ryu came out for the third inning, but was pulled after he allowed the go-ahead run to score. He was charged with another run after leaving the game.
Ryu tossed just 2 1/3 innings, giving up seven earned runs. He allowed 10 hits, with two strikeouts and two walks. The loss drops him to 9-5. His next start is scheduled to come against the Padres.
