Dodgers starter Hyun-Jin Ryu was solid Monday night in Miami. It just wasn't his night against Jose Fernandez and the Marlins.
Ryu took the loss to fall to 12-4 on the season as he gave up three earned runs on six hits and two walks over 7 1/3 innings in defeat. He struck out five and threw 112 pitches. His ERA is now at 2.95 on the year.
The 26-year-old rookie has been excellent for the Dodgers. Ryu had won his previous five outings and had wins in his last six decisions. He suffered his first loss since way back on June 19. The starter is next scheduled to take the mound for the Dodgers Saturday against Boston.
