The National League beat the American League 7-4 in the Fall Stars Game, and while there were no Dodger hitters involved, with Chase Harlan absent from the game, two of their pitchers made an appearance. Luke Fox and Brooks Auger came within one strikeout (5) of equaling the AL\u2019s total for the game (6) as the two pitching staffs displayed contrasting levels of stuff. Overall, the National League struck out three times as many hitters as the AL, 18 to 6 to be precise.<\/p>\n
Fox was one of two NL pitchers to be hit with a blown save; on multiple occasions, they surrendered the lead in the middle innings before opening a three-run lead in the eighth. Fox allowed one hit and an unearned run, striking out the side in the fifth.<\/p>\n
Auger followed in the seventh with a clean frame in what was then a tied game, punching out a couple to work around a walk. The National League used 11 pitchers in total, and each one of them secured at least one strikeout, while only four of 11 did that for the AL.<\/p>\n

On the NL side of things, Yerlin Confidan doubled and walked in two plate appearances, enough to be selected MVP of the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The National League beat the American League 7-4 in the Fall Stars Game, and while there were no…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":849392,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2406],"tags":[5,39,41194,1165,4332,4333,774,57,3224,4331,4],"class_list":["post-849391","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles-dodgers","tag-baseball","tag-dodgers","tag-dodgers-prospects","tag-la","tag-la-dodgers","tag-ladodgers","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-dodgers","tag-losangeles","tag-losangelesdodgers","tag-mlb"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/117587120154312517","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/849391","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=849391"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/849391\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/849392"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=849391"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=849391"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=849391"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
