Shoemaker allowed two runs on six hits over six innings to take a loss against the Dodgers on Wednesday. He struck out five and walked two in the contest. Shoemaker rebounded nicely after a rocky second inning to throw four scoreless frames, but it wasn't enough to take the victory. The 27-year-old has had his struggles of late, but has been more than serviceable in his role as a starter this season, tallying a 3.81 ERA with 73 strikeouts in 75.2 innings. He will look for a better result in his next start against the Phillies on Tuesday
