In this story:


The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Colorado Rockies, 7-2, on Tuesday evening and improved to 81-64 on the year thanks to four long balls from LA, including two from Teoscar Hernández.

In other news, the Dodgers lost a former All-Star reliever. He didn't waste much time finding a new opportunity as he was picked up by a National League squad.

Additionally, in more relief pitching news, the Dodgers are unlikely to get a key bullpen arm back this season. Manager Dave Roberts told reporters that he is assumed to be unavailable for the rest of the regular season.

Finally, the Dodgers most-used right-hander was sent down to Triple-A in a surprising move on Tuesday. In a corresponding move, however, LA got Alex Vesia back from his stint on the injured list.
