The Padres won the final game of the series 6-3 as the lackluster Dodgers' bullpen gave up important runs in the latter part of the innings while the hitters couldn't respond with might.

The LA faithful were unhappy with the loss against their NL rivals and took to X to express their frustration. One fan said:

"Padres own us in our stadium smh."

The LA Dodgers led the game through five innings before a picture change in the top of the sixth called upon a frail bullpen, which gave up five runs in the sixth and seventh innings. It was followed by the Padres' relievers turning up the heat on LA's hitters.

Fans erupted over LA's bullpen, as many said the underperforming relievers were the primary reason for the series loss against San Diego.

"The bottom of the bullpen just giving away games… smh," one fan commented.
"Can’t win a series against the padres man this bullpen sucks," commented another fan.
"This team has major holes when it comes to pitching," commented yet another fan.

While the top three in LA's hitting lineup had one hit each, catcher Will Smith produced two, Max Muncy smashed a two-run bomb, and the bottom four of the hitting lineup couldn't generate a single hit in the contest.

The LA Dodgers will hope to win their next homestand series against the Nationals

The Los Angeles Dodgers will continue their nine-game homestand against the Washington Nationals in a three-game series starting Monday. The Nationals are 6-9 for the season, coming off a series loss against the Oakland Athletics.

LA will be starting Tyler Glasnow on the mound, who is in red-hot form with a 3-0 record so far in the season. He has a 2.25 ERA and has struck out 29 batters in 24 innings. He leads the league in wins and is placed second in terms of strikeouts.

With the Washington Nationals set to give a Major League debut to Mitchell Parker against LA, the Dodgers will look to capitalize against the inexperienced starter on Monday.
