Emmet Sheehan Continues Hot Streak with Nine Strikeouts

Emmet Sheehan continued his late-season hot streak on Sunday against the San Francisco Giants, recording nine strikeouts in 5.1 innings while allowing just a single and a walk. Since rejoining the Dodgers, he has allowed only one run across 17 innings over three starts with 24 strikeouts. Manager Dave Roberts praised his recent form and increased curveball usage. Sheehan is expected to make a minor league start before rejoining the Dodgers for a likely postseason relief role.
