For the second time in 10 months, Dodgers ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto lost a no-hitter in the ninth inning. This time, on Saturday in Chicago, he flirted with perfection in a win over the White Sox, retiring his first 23 batters faced. Yamamoto is the first Dodgers pitcher to lose two no-hitters in the ninth inning. Coupled with his previous start, his 45 consecutive batters retired was one shy of Yusmeiro Petit's major league record. The Dodgers had a so-so road trip, splitting six games with the Pittsburgh Pirates and Chicago White Sox. Big innings felled the pitching staff over the last week-plus, and the home run ball has terrorized Los Angeles pitching all June. Jack Dreyer allowed four home runs in his first 91 major league appearances, but since returning from the injured list has allowed five home runs in his last seven outings, for instance. Freddie Freeman has been hot at the plate for about four weeks, and on Tuesday in Pittsburgh got his 2,500th career hit, just the 102nd player to reach that milestone. Shohei Ohtani (left knee) and Justin Wrobleski (right hamstring) had injury scares last week but appear to be okay. Tommy Edman will be activated off the injured list this week for his season debut after ankle surgery, while relievers Evan Phillips and Brock Stewart are nearing returns of their own.

Drea and Anthony break down a packed week of Dodgers news as the offseason heats up. We look at free agency rumors and whether Cody Bellinger makes more sense than Kyle Tucker as a potential pickup. We also react to the Corey Seager trade chatter and whether it is a real story or just noise. We talk about non tender decisions on Evan Phillips and Nick Frasso and go through the Dodgers arbitration eligible group including Brusdar Graterol, Anthony Banda, Brock Stewart and Alex Call. We look ahead at next season's pitching plans with Gavin Stone and River Ryan expected to take bigger roles. We also discuss Andrew Friedman and Farhan Zaidi joining the Lakers as special advisors. There is also Shohei Ohtani news including updates from his Family Foundation and the latest from WBC. We celebrate Dave Roberts reaching 10 seasons as Dodgers manager and congratulate Jack Dreyer and Dalton Rushing on their engagements. Since it is Thanksgiving week, Drea and Anthony share their favorite dishes and rank holiday meals. We also look at the celebrity table image and pick where we would sit.
