Jack Flaherty pitched six sharp innings in his Dodgers debut, and Los Angeles snapped a three-game losing streak by defeating the Oakland Athletics 10-0 on Saturday night. Shohei Ohtani stole three bases for Los Angeles to give him 31 on the season to go with his 33 homers. This is just the fourth time a Dodgers player has reached the 30-30 club in a season, with only three players in the majors doing so faster than Ohtani, who accomplished the feat in the 111th game of the season. Eric Davis was the fastest to do it, in 1987, when he reached it in the Cincinnati Reds' 105th game. Flaherty (8-5) had his big performance in his first game since being acquired on Tuesday from the Detroit Tigers in a trade-deadline deal. He paid immediate dividends for a struggling Dodgers team that had lost five of six games before he took the mound in Oakland.
 
Wow, what a game! Flaherty’s Dodgers debut was a win, and Ohtani hitting the 30-30 mark is just incredible. Baseball is really bringing the excitement this season!
