Yamamoto Denied Immaculate Inning in Dodgers Loss

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto was denied an immaculate inning against the San Diego Padres after umpire Marvin Hudson called a clear third strike a ball, frustrating fans and commentators. Despite striking out the side, Yamamoto allowed three runs over 6.1 innings and took the loss as the Dodgers fell 5-3. The game featured heightened tensions, including bench-clearing incidents following multiple hit-by-pitches involving Fernando Tatis Jr. and Shohei Ohtani. Yamamoto continues a June winless streak but holds a strong 2.76 ERA for the season. The rare immaculate inning has only occurred once this year, achieved by Miami's Cal Quantrill. The Dodgers also announced Shohei Ohtani will make his second pitching start of the season on Sunday.
