Los Angeles Dodgers closer Edwin Díaz began a rehab assignment Sunday with Triple-A Oklahoma City. Díaz pitched one scoreless inning, recording a called strikeout while walking one batter and throwing seven strikes across 16 pitches. Manager Dave Roberts indicated the team expects Díaz to make another appearance before returning to the major league roster. Meanwhile, Oklahoma City completed a six-game sweep of the Round Rock Express behind Zach Ehrhard, who drove in all three runs in the victory. Christian Romero earned the win after pitching 5 1/3 scoreless innings, while Kris Bubic also contributed a scoreless eighth inning in his ongoing rehab assignment. Oklahoma City remains tied with Sugar Land in the Pacific Coast League second-half standings with 12 regular-season games remaining.
