Dodgers manager Dave Roberts announced that Muncy will miss the next game against the Angels but could be available over the weekend. Tanner Scott allowed a walk-off home run to Ketel Marte, contributing to the Dodgers' tight loss. Justin Wrobleski delivered six scoreless innings, but did not earn a decision due to the bullpen's struggles.
