A rare occurrence comes to Dodger Stadium on Tuesday for the middle game between the Dodgers and Tampa Bay Rays. Justin Wrobleski starts the middle game of the series, just the second time this season a Dodgers pitcher will start on four days rest.
Sheehan made his start on four days rest on May 19 in San Diego, and allowed four runs in four innings to the Padres. Like this Wrobleski start, both Dodgers starts on four days rest this season were to accommodate moving Shohei Ohtani to pitching on a Wednesday
before a scheduled team off day, to limit the times he bats with next-day fatigue after pitching whenever possible.
Wrobleski left his start in the fifth inning last Thursday with a right hamstring contusion after getting hit by a comebacker, but after the game and since both he and the team has maintained the left-hander will be fine to make his next start.
Drew Rasmussen starts for Tampa Bay.
