Roki Sasaki made his fourth rehab start, while Tommy Edman and Kyle Hurt began their assignments with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday night as they look to return to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Sasaki has been on the injured list since May 13 due to a prolonged recovery from a right shoulder impingement that twice shut him down from throwing.

Sasaki’s rehab process has not been smooth as despite the two shutdowns, he’s also struggled in starts for the Comets.

Hurt underwent Tommy John surgery in late July 2024, and there wasn’t much of an expectation that he’d pitch this season. But the Dodgers are leaving him as an option to return this year, even if it’s unlikely.

Edman has been out since the beginning of August because of a sprained right ankle, which has given him troubles throughout the season.

Those issues have lingered and presented him from playing much center field, but the Dodgers are having him focus on the outfield during his rehab assignment.

Dodgers on rehab assignment

Roki Sasaki

Sasaki’s struggles were most apparent as he allowed four runs over five innings, giving up three hits, walking two, hitting one and striking out just two.

The right-hander also allowed a pair of home runs in the first inning, which put the OKC Comets behind early and in a deficit they couldn’t overcome.

Sasaki retired the first two batters he faced, then hit a batter and immediately followed that with a home run allowed. Sasaki came back with another walk, and then allowed his second homer of the inning.

After the four runs allowed in the first, Sasaki settled in, allowing just one hit and a walk over the next four innings.

Kyle Hurt

Kyle Hurt took over in the seventh inning. He walked the first hitter he faced, then allowed a single that put runners at the corners.

Hurt ended up getting a double play, but that also allowed a run to score. He got out of the inning just after that, finishing his night with one inning pitched, giving up one run on one hit with one walk.

Tommy Edman

Edman went 0-for-3 with a walk in his first rehab game while starting as the designated hitter and batting second.

Edman lined out in his first at-bat and flied out in his second. The utilityman flied out again in the sixth inning before drawing a walk in the eighth, but the next batter struck out to end the inning.
