Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Noah Syndergaard admitted to being the "weakest link" on the team after allowing five runs on seven hits, including three home runs, in a loss to the Nationals. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts would not confirm whether Syndergaard would make his next start, and the former All-Star acknowledged that his mechanical adjustments have not been effective. Syndergaard has allowed multiple runs in nine consecutive outings and has a 6.54 ERA this season. The Dodgers are also dealing with injuries to their starting rotation, which could provide some short-term security for Syndergaard.

Despite listing attendance as a sell-out, there were sizable patches of empty seats at Fenway Park.
