Messick shines for 6 scoreless as Guardians spoil Dodgers' perfect start, 4-2

LOS ANGELES. The Cleveland Guardians beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-2 on Monday as Parker Messick tossed six scoreless innings and Cleveland scored three runs in the seventh; Dodgers' offense managed two ninth-inning runs but fell short, ending Los Angeles' 3-0 season start. The loss ended the Dodgers' early unbeaten run and left questions about Roki Sasaki's command despite his 99.5 mph fastball and a new cutter; Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Sasaki can build confidence from this start as the team evaluates rotation decisions this week.
