Dodgers Shushed by Baby Cakes, 11-3

Metairie, La. - The New Orleans Baby Cakes scored 11 runs between the fourth in sixth innings and held the Oklahoma City Dodgers to a season-low three hits in an 11-3 win Sunday evening at the Shrine on Airline.
With the loss, the Dodgers (26-22) have dropped four of the last five games. During that stretch they've allowed at least six runs in each loss, as well at least nine runs three times. The Baby Cakes (18-32) snapped a three-game losing streak with the win. 
On the first pitch of the game, Willie Calhoun lined a double to left-center field. Later in the first inning with two on and two out, Max Muncy hit a RBI double. New Orleans right fielder Moisés Sierra also committed a throwing error on the play, allowing another run to score as OKC took a 2-0 lead.
The Dodgers maintained the two-run advantage until the Baby Cakes took control of the middle innings, stockpiling 11 runs and nine hits between the fourth and sixth innings.
Dodgers starting pitcher Justin Masterson breezed through his first three innings before running into trouble the fourth inning. After a groundout started the inning, Masterson issued back-to-back walks. David Vidal came up next and hit a three-run homer to left field to give New Orleans the lead.
The Baby Cakes added two more runs in the inning following an error, a wild pitch a two-out RBI single by Brandon Barnes to chase Masterson from the game.
New Orleans kept rolling in the fifth inning. Tomás Telis led off with a single, and Chad Hinshaw came up next. On a 0-2 pitch, Hinshaw sent a fly ball to center field. Trayce Thompson broke in on the ball, but it carried over his head for a RBI triple. Later in the inning with runners at the corners, Muncy committed a throwing error to second base that allowed another run to score. Mike Aviles added a RBI single on a 0-2 pitch, and Nick Noonan finished things off with a sacrifice fly to make it 9-2.
The Baby Cakes opened the sixth inning with three straight hits, including a RBI single by Telis. Moises Sierra collected a RBI groundout later in the inning to score New Orleans' 11th and final run of the night.
After picking up two runs in the first inning, the Dodgers were shut down by the New Orleans pitching staff. Following Muncy's RBI double, 21 of the next 23 Dodgers were retired, with two batters reaching base via walk. At one point between the third and eight innings, Stephen Fife and Kyle Lobstein combined to retire 17 of 18 batters, including a run of 10 straight leading into the ninth inning.
The Dodgers finished the game with another run in the ninth inning. Thompson drew a leadoff walk and eventually scored on a RBI single by Muncy.
The Dodgers tied their overall season-low with three hits, but it marked their lowest hit output in a nine-inning game this season. Muncy was responsible for two of those hits and collected both of the team's RBI. The Dodgers also had their home run streak stopped at 14 consecutive games, which is tied for second-longest in team history.
Fife (4-2) turned in six strong innings and earned the win. He allowed two runs (one earned) and two hits, with three walks and five strikeouts. He did not give up a hit over his final five innings and retired 11 of the final 12 batters he faced. 
Masterson (4-2) couldn't escape the fourth inning and ended up with the loss. He allowed five runs (three earned) and three hits, with three walks and three strikeouts over 3.2 innings.
The Dodgers defense did not fare much better, tying their season high with three errors for the second time in four games.
