Suffice it to say the Los Angeles Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani didn't enjoy his run-in with Cincinnati Reds starter Nick Lodolo.

The loss dropped the Reds to 56-52, and they'll need to win the July 30 series finale against the Dodgers to avoid their first sweep of the season. Cincinnati is scheduled to send starter Nick Martinez (9-9, 4.69 ERA) to the mound against probable Dodgers starter, Shohei Ohtani (0-0, 1.50 ERA).

The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Cincinnati Reds square off in the last game of a three-game series. The Dodgers can sweep the series with a victory.

The Reds had two homers in their last nine games entering Tuesday's game against the Dodgers. That's when Jake Fraley and Noelvi Marte teed off on Dodgers' starter Tyler Glasnow. Fraley launched a 405-foot, two-run blast into the right field moon deck at Great American Ball Park. It was Fraley's sixth homer of the year and tied the contest at two.
