<p>Seager won’t start on Tuesday</p> <p id="3Mu0Ju">The Dodgers got a scare on Monday night when shortstop Corey Seager was hit by a pitch on his left wrist. Postgame X-rays were negative, but manager Dave Roberts said that Seager would not start on Tuesday in the second game of the series.</p>
<p id="QIYaDt">Seager was hit by two pitches on Monday, also getting hit on the calf in the fifth inning. After getting hit in the seventh inning, Seager doubled over in pain, but stayed in the game after a brief visit at first base from manager Dave Roberts and trainer Nate Lucero.</p>

<p id="1xh0Cv">Seager played the final two innings on defense and batted in the ninth, flying out to deep right field for the final out of the game.</p>
<p id="nSEjIo">“There is a little bit of holding your breath,” Roberts said, as seen on SportsNet LA. “Anything around the hand is pretty scary, but he’s young, resilient, and fortunately [the X-ray] was negative.”</p>
<p id="jciFYE">The Rockies are starting left-hander Tyler Anderson on Wednesday night.</p>
<p id="lbpAH1">Seager has started 24 of the Dodgers’ first 33 games against left-handed starting pitchers, and on the season the left-handed Seager has hit .278/.335/.479 with 12 doubles and five home runs against southpaws.</p>
<p id="stqHIY">Seager leads the Dodgers in games played (127, tied with Adrian Gonzalez), plate appearances (558) and defensive innings (1,091⅓) on the season.</p>

<p>9th-inning run avoids Dodgers’ first shutout loss in Denver in four years</p> <p id="mnt99J">The Dodgers found themselves wanting on offense in the opener of a three-game series, blown out by the Rockies 8-1 on Monday night at Coors Field.</p>
<p id="jTWihp">The loss dropped the Dodgers’ lead in the National League West down to 1½ games over the idle Giants.</p>
<p id="gT2LlG">Los Angeles had runners reach base in every inning, totaling 13 runners on the night — five hits, five walks and three times hit by a pitch. But they were 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position against Jon Gray, who struck out eight in his six scoreless innings, his second August home start against the Dodgers without allowing a run.</p>
<p id="gCyin1">The Dodgers didn’t score until Andrew Toles tripled in the ninth and trotted home on a ground out, avoiding what would have been the club’s first <a href="http://bbref.com/pi/shareit/cdYJ6">shutout at Coors Field since Aug. 27, 2012</a>.</p>
<p id="Pv2uoU">The Dodgers have averaged 5.1 runs in 40 games since the All-Star break, but that includes just 10 runs over the past six games, of which somehow the Dodgers have won three.</p>
<p id="rsLkNB">It was the hit batsmen that were a concern for the Dodgers, specifically when Corey Seager was hit by a Chris Rusin fastball in the seventh inning, a pitch that seemed to clip Seager’s right wrist then also hit him squarely somewhere on his left hand, possibly his left wrist.</p>
<p id="quDFh1">Seager, who was also hit in the right calf by Gray in the fifth inning, doubled over in obvious pain after getting hit on the hand in the seventh. He was visited at first base by trainer Nate Lucero and manager Dave Roberts, and remained in the game.</p>
<p id="ysPKca">The Rockies didn’t have a hit with runners in scoring position against Kenta Maeda, but with David Dahl on first base after a single in the fourth inning Colorado got on the board with a two-run home run to left field by catcher Nick Hundley, his sixth extra-base hit in his last eight games.</p>
<p id="cmzYmr">It spoiled an otherwise solid start for Maeda, who threw 88 pitches in five innings, striking out six with just one walk. Maeda has a 2.12 ERA in three starts at Coors Field this season, and is just the<a href="http://bbref.com/pi/shareit/jyOe9"> second visiting pitcher ever to have three starts in Denver with two or fewer runs allowed in the same season</a>, joining Clay Hensley of the Padres in 2006.</p>
<p id="xG0c5J">Colorado did have the game’s first hits with runners in scoring position in the bottom of the seventh, and had several, plating five runs against relievers Adam Liberatore and Pedro Baez, punctuated by a two-run double by D.J. LeMahieu, who (.34437) narrowly trails Nationals second baseman Daniel Murphy (.34475) for the National League lead in batting average.</p>
<p id="z63ham">Nolan Arenado added an RBI double off the right field wall in the four-run frame, giving him 33 RBI in August. That is not his career-best month, still two behind his total in June 2015.</p>
<p id="R4DLz7">Maeda has allowed four runs in 17 innings at Coors Field this season. The rest of the Dodgers’ pitching staff has allowed 43 runs in 42 innings.</p>
<h4 id="XTFAVf">Up next</h4>
<p id="wCkztx">Rich Hill makes his second start as a Dodger on Tuesday night in the middle game of the series, another 5:40 p.m. PT start. Left-handed rookie Tyler Anderson starts for the Rockies, completing this battle of southpaws.</p>

<p>Rob Segedin starts at 3B on Monday</p> <p id="wW6Q6t">Justin Turner is out of the Dodgers’ lineup in their series opener against the Rockies on Monday night at Coors Field.</p>
<p id="5hEgKd">Rob Segedin gets the spot start at third base in place of Turner, Segedin’s fifth start at the hot corner since getting called up.</p>
<p id="qIVfy9">Turner is 6-for-15 (.400) with three doubles and a home run in five games at Coors Field this season, and in his career has hit .375/.437/.594 in 71 plate appearances. Since joining the Dodgers in 2014, Turner has excelled in Denver, hitting .396/.457/.660 (21-for-53) with eight doubles, two home runs and 13 RBI in 18 games.</p>

<p>Maeda was 0-0 with a 0.00 ERA in 0 games with AZL Dodgers</p> <p id="g21sly">LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers on Monday recalled Kenta Maeda from the Rookie-level Arizona League in the paperest of paper moves, allowing the right-hander to start the series opener against the Rockies at Coors Field.</p>
<p id="flcMij">Brock Stewart, who pitched five scoreless innings on Sunday, was optioned to Double-A Tulsa to make room on the active roster.</p>
<p id="necMes">The <a href="http://www.truebluela.com/2016/8/26/12665990/brock-stewart-recalled-dodgers-kenta-maeda-shawn-zarraga">move to option Maeda</a> didn’t materially affect anything negatively — he still was paid for the three days technically in the minors, and the three days missed won’t prevent him from earning a full year of major league service time in 2016.</p>
<p id="Fj0s1Y">It <em>did</em> allow the Dodgers to play with a full bench in three days Maeda wasn’t going to pitch anyway, and done with advance blessing from Maeda and his agent as a courtesy.</p>
<p id="iNUAMa">Normally, a player can’t return from optional assignment within 10 days of getting sent out unless replacing an injured player, or someone going on the bereavement or paternity list. Another loophole is that a player is allowed to return if his team’s minor league season ends, which happened on Sunday with the AZL Dodgers.</p>
<p id="11sSRu">The season ending counts playoffs, which is presumably why Stewart was sent to Tulsa, currently two games out of a playoff berth in the Texas League with a regular season over next Monday, instead of Triple-A Oklahoma City, who clinched a PCL division title Sunday.</p>
<p id="bJs0FZ">Maeda has a 3.37 ERA and 3.68 FIP in 25 starts this season, with 142 strikeouts with 39 walks in 141⅔ innings.</p>

<p>Dodgers are 28-22 against the NL West</p> <p id="vf1RkU">We are down to five weeks left in the regular season, with 32 games left on the Dodgers’ regular season schedule. A whopping 26 of those games are against the National League West, including the next nine against the non-Giants.</p>
<p id="NVgCpe">That run starts with three games at Coors Field against the Rockies, beginning Monday night in Denver. LA has one home and one road series left with all four other teams in the division.</p>
<p id="wMZcyx">The Dodgers are 28-22 (.560) against the NL West this year, the second-best record within the division (San Francisco is 32-20). That includes a 12-13 record on the road within the division, including 3-3 at Coors Field.</p>
<p id="Ximd1T">When the Dodgers left Denver at the beginning of the month, the Rockies took two of three games and climbed back to .500, on the fringes of contention just three games out of a wild card spot.</p>
<p id="bvZrjc">But Colorado is just 8-14 since then and now find themselves 6½ games behind the Cardinals for the second wild card spot, with three more teams in between.</p>
<p id="dHMhKl">The run prevention has gone south for Colorado, who got back into it by giving up 3.93 runs per game in July, but has allowed 5.84 runs per game in August.</p>
<p id="uE4sCe">Jon Gray saw a three-start blip during which he allowed 19 runs on 22 hits in 12 innings, but he rebounded with 10 strikeouts in six innings last Tuesday in Milwaukee, allowing just two runs.</p>
<p id="7sxMGF">Kenta Maeda starts against the Rockies on Monday, with a 1.45 ERA in three starts against Colorado this season, with 22 strikeouts and two walks in 18⅔ innings.</p>
<p id="T9oYtk">Maeda is one of just <a href="http://bbref.com/pi/shareit/jXHTV">four Dodgers starting pitchers to allow two or fewer runs in multiple starts in one seaso</a><a href="http://bbref.com/pi/shareit/jXHTV">n at Coors Field</a> . No Dodgers pitcher has ever done it more than twice in the same year.</p>

<p>Dodgers make their final trip to Colorado in 2016 </p> <p id="FhzgtM">The Dodgers end their August just like they started it, with a standalone single-series road trip to Denver to face the Rockies at Coors Field. Here is a look at the probable pitchers for the final three games before active roster limits expand,</p>
<h4 id="Uqfv1T">Monday, 5:40 p.m. PT (SportsNet LA)</h4>
<p id="Ea4bMn">Kenta Maeda has been at his best facing the Rockies this season, allowing just three runs in 18⅔ innings, with 22 strikeouts and two walks. In two starts at Coors Field he is 2-0 with a 1.50 ERA.</p>
<p id="OIK5PJ">Jon Gray has a 4.50 ERA in three starts against the Dodgers this season, with 20 strikeouts and seven walks in 16 innings. Gray pitched five scoreless innings in a win on Aug. 2 at Coors Field, with six strikeouts.</p>
<h4 id="JxEuxc">Tuesday, 5:40 p.m. (SportsNet LA)</h4>
<p id="bPloOV">Rich Hill has an 8.80 ERA in three career starts at Coors Field, but they came way back in 2006-2008, before Rich Hill became <em>Rich Hill</em>. Colorado is fifth in the NL in OPS against left-handers yet are only 15-22 in games started by opposing southpaws.</p>
<p id="8DxpHL">The Dodgers face a southpaw as well in Tyler Anderson, who shut LA down at Coors Field on Aug. 3, allowing two runs in seven innings. In nine starts at Coors Field, the rookie Anderson owns a 3.54 home ERA, with 54 strikeouts and 14 walks in 57⅔ innings.</p>
<h4 id="MxFB2Q">Wednesday, 12:10 p.m. (SportsNet LA)</h4>
<p id="EirFoR">Colorado sends another rookie to the hill on getaway day, with Jeff Hoffman making his third major league start. The 23-year-old right-hander, drafted ninth overall in 2014, put up a 4.02 ERA in Triple-A Albuquerque, with 124 strikeouts in 118⅔ innings.</p>
<p id="ITixq1">Wednesday is TBD for the Dodgers, but the choices are likely Ross Stripling on five days rest or Bud Norris on regular rest, with an off day coming on Thursday.</p>
