LOS ANGELES (AP) — As good as the Dodgers have been at home recently, Kenta Maeda hasn't enjoyed the same good fortune.
His struggles at Dodger Stadium culminated in a 4-1 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday night that cost Los Angeles its five-game overall winning streak and ended its run of 10 consecutive home victories.
Maeda (7-6) gave up a three-run homer to Manny Machado in the fifth inning, helping the Orioles end their five-game skid. The right-hander tied season highs in runs allowed (four) and hits (seven) in four-plus innings, equaling the shortest outing of his career.
Maeda struck out five and walked three. He fell to 3-6 in nine home starts this season.
