Dodgers Lineup vs Braves: Tommy Edman Out With Injury, Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the Mound

The Los Angeles Dodgers are looking to extend their winning streak to six games as they take on the Atlanta Braves on Friday night at Truist Park.

Right-handed pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto (3-2, 1.06 ERA) is taking the mound for the Dodgers against Braves right-hander Grant Holmes (2-1, 4.50 ERA).

Holmes has already faced the Dodgers once this season on March 31, allowing four earned runs on four hits and four walks across four innings of work. Here’s the lineup the Dodgers are sending out against Holmes, without Tommy Edman for a second consecutive game.

  1. Shohei Ohtani, DH
  2. Mookie Betts, SS
  3. Freddie Freeman, 1B
  4. Teoscar Hernandez, RF
  5. Will Smith, C
  6. Max Muncy, 3B
  7. Andy Pages, CF
  8. Michael Conforto, LF
  9. Miguel Rojas, 2B

Edman tweaked his ankle on Tuesday and missed Wednesday’s game. The Dodgers were hoping he’d be back in the lineup on Friday, but that’s clearly not the case.
