Dodgers Roll Out Star-Studded Lineup in Bounceback Opportunity

Who is in the Dodgers Lineup on Wednesday?

The Dodgers went with a pretty standard lineup for the second game of the series, putting just about all of their big stars in the batting order as they look to bounce back.

Designated hitter Shohei Ohtani will lead the line and right fielder Kyle Tucker will follow him in the No. 2 spot. Will Smith re-enters the lineup batting third, and first baseman Freddie Freeman will make his second consecutive start since returning from paternity leave in the cleanup spot.

Left fielder Teoscar Hernandez bats fifth for LA, and third baseman Max Muncy will follow him. Center fielder Andy Pages slots into the No. 7 spot and shortstop Hyeseong Kim and second baseman Miguel Rojas sit at the bottom of the lineup.

Ohtani will also be pitching for the Dodgers on Tuesday, and will look to keep his hot start on the mound going. Ohtani has a 0.50 ERA this season, and has struck out 18 batters in as many innings.

Who is Pitching for the Giants?

The Giants are giving offseason signing Tyler Mahle the nod for the second game of the series, who will look to improve upon his subpar start to 2026.

Mahle is 0-3 on the season, and has a 7.23 ERA through 18.2 innings pitched this season, though he has 21 strikeouts during that period.

The right-hander is a perfect opponent for the Dodgers at the moment, as they’re looking to wake up the bats after a quiet game on Tuesday. They bat first in the game, which will start at 6:45 p.m. PT.
