Dodgers' Yoshinobu Yamamoto: Rare bad outing in Arizona
Yamamoto (4-3) allowed five runs on six hits and a walk while striking out four over five innings to take the loss versus the Diamondbacks on Thursday.
Yamamoto navigated a little trouble the first time through the order, but the Diamondbacks got to him in the fourth inning. Gabriel Moreno tagged him for a grand slam to open the scoring in that frame, and Ketel Marte added a solo home run an inning later. The five runs allowed were more than Yamamoto had allowed over his last five starts combined, a stretch in which he gave up four runs (one earned) in 30 innings. He's given up a pair of homers in two of his eight starts so far, but he hasn't seen a ball leave the yard in the other six. Even with this season-worst performance, Yamamoto is at a 1.80 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 53:14 K:BB through 45 innings. He'll look to right the ship versus the Athletics next week.

Dodgers' Yoshinobu Yamamoto: Brilliant once again in fourth win
Yamamoto (4-2) earned the win Friday against Atlanta after allowing one hit and two walks in six scoreless innings. He struck out six.
Yamamoto was brilliant against a formidable Atlanta lineup, taking a no-hit bid into the sixth inning en route to matching a career best with one hit allowed. The star right-hander induced 17 whiffs, and he's now registered at least five punchouts in six consecutive starts. Yamamoto has also given up one run or zero in six of his seven outings this year, recording a magnificent 0.90 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 49:13 K:BB through his first 40 frames. He'll look to keep the good times rolling next week in Arizona.

Dodgers' Yoshinobu Yamamoto: Loses duel against Skenes
Yamamoto (3-2) took the loss Friday, giving up three runs (one earned) on five hits and four walks over five innings as the Dodgers fell 3-0 to the Pirates. He struck out five.
In a battle of early NL Cy Young candidates, the 26-year-old righty couldn't match Paul Skenes as a Max Muncy error and Yamamoto's own shaky control ended his quality start streak at three. He tossed just 58 of 94 pitches for strikes, and the four walks were a season worst for Yamamoto. He'll look to bounce back in his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road next weekend in Atlanta.

Dodgers' Yoshinobu Yamamoto: Dazzles with seven shutout innings
Yamamoto (3-1) allowed five hits and struck out 10 without walking a batter over seven shutout innings to earn the win Friday over the Rangers.
Yamamoto has rung up 10 strikeouts in two of his five starts so far. He hasn't allowed an earned run over his last three outings, giving up just one unearned run, 10 hits and four walks across 19 innings in that span. For the season, he's been stellar with 0.93 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 38:7 K:BB over 29 innings. Yamamoto largely lived up to the hype in his MLB debut season last year, and 2025 is shaping up to be even better for the 26-year-old right-hander. His next start is projected to be at home versus the Pirates, which is a favorable matchup.

Dodgers' Yoshinobu Yamamoto: Fans nine in Friday's win
Yamamoto (2-1) picked up the win Friday, scattering two hits and a walk over six scoreless innings in a 3-0 victory over the Cubs. He struck out nine.
The right-hander continued his dominant beginning to 2025, delivering his second straight quality start without allowing an earned run. Yamamoto got stretched out to 103 pitches (64 strikes) in this one, racking up an impressive 33 called or swinging strikes along the way, and so far the Dodgers' plan to limit his workload to one start a week appears to be paying off. Through four outings, Yamamoto sports a 1.23 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 28:7 K:BB, and he'll look to keep rolling when he takes the bump for his next start, which is scheduled to come on the road next weekend against the Rangers.

Dodgers' Yoshinobu Yamamoto: No run support in tough-luck loss
Yamamoto (1-1) took the loss after allowing an unearned run on three hits and three walks in six innings Friday against Philadelphia. He struck out five.
Yamamoto contained a loaded Phillies lineup Friday, but he received no run support and was outdueled by Jesus Luzardo's seven shutout frames for the Phillies. Yamamoto allowed a lone extra-base hit on the night, which ultimately led to Trea Turner stealing third base and coming home to score on a Yamamoto throwing error. The star right-hander has now tossed at least five innings and given up two runs or fewer in each of his first three starts this year, and up next is a matchup in Washington next week.

Dodgers' Yoshinobu Yamamoto: Fans 10 in no-decision
Yamamoto came away with a no-decision in Friday's 8-5 extra-inning win over the Tigers, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out 10.
After picking up a win back home in Japan during the Dodgers' season-opening set against the Cubs, Yamamoto was mostly sharp in his first stateside outing, tossing 58 of 91 pitches for strikes while fanning double-digit batters for the first time in his MLB career. The right-hander did serve up solo shots to Gleyber Torres (side) and Dillon Dingler to mar his performance, however. Yamamoto will take a 2.70 ERA and 14:3 K:BB through his first 10 innings of the season into his next start, which lines up to come on the road next weekend in Philadelphia.

Dodgers' Yoshinobu Yamamoto: Notches win in Tokyo
Yamamoto (1-0) earned the win Tuesday against the Cubs in Tokyo after giving up one run on three hits and one walk across five innings. He struck out four.
The 26-year-old induced 11 swinging strikes on just 72 pitches, with the only damage against him coming via an RBI double by Miguel Amaya during the second inning. The shortness of the outing isn't surprising since the Dodgers dealt with an abbreviated spring training, and Yamamoto should be built up to a full workload before long. The right-hander struggled against the Padres during his MLB debut in South Korea nearly a year ago, but he delivered a strong start to 2025 on Tuesday while pitching in his home country of Japan.
