Roki Sasaki makes his second start of the week, looking to build off his season opener when the Dodgers finish off their weekend series against the Washington Nationals on Sunday afternoon at Nationals Park in Washington D.C.

Sasaki got through four innings on Monday against the Cleveland Guardians, with more strikeouts (four) than walks (two) and threw more strikes (45) than balls (33). That may sound like damning with faint praise, but it was a total turnaround from his abysmal spring training, and he saw positive results in allowing only one run in his four-plus frames.
