The Dodgers recalled Wrobleski from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday.

Wrobleski will offer length in the bullpen Thursday against the Athletics while Matt Sauer makes a spot start. The left-hander was roughed up for eight runs in five frames in a spot start with the big club last month but has yielded just three runs over 13 innings in his last two starts with OKC.

The Dodgers optioned Feyereisen to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday.

Feyereisen allowed four runs (three earned) on eight hits and a walk over two innings during his brief time with the big club. He's being replaced on the roster by Justin Wrobleski.

Villar went 1-for-2 with a run scored and two walks in Wednesday's 8-7 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Villar started at first base Wednesday, collecting two free passes for the first time this season. Additionally, the 28-year-old hit an infield single in the fourth inning before coming around to score his first run since April 22. The infielder has made five appearances in May, slashing .222/.462/.222 with a 3:2 BB:K across 13 plate appearances.

Huff went 1-for-3 with a run scored in Wednesday's 8-7 loss to the Diamondbacks.

The 27-year-old received the starting nod behind the plate against southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez. Huff lined a single into left field in the second inning before coming around to score on a sacrifice fly. The catcher has made four appearances in May, slashing .167/.154/.167 with a 61.5 percent strikeout rate across 13 plate appearances.

Adames went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk and a run scored in Wednesday's 8-7 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Adames drew a walk in the second inning before coming around to score San Francisco's first run. The 29-year-old shortstop also lined a ground-rule double into left-center field during the ninth, marking his third consecutive game with an extra-base hit. Over 13 appearances in May, Adames is slashing .264/.339/.528 with 11 runs scored, six RBI, five doubles and three home runs across 59 plate appearances.

Lee went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 8-7 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Lee went yard in the seventh inning, launching a 393-foot shot to right field off right-hander Ryne Nelson. The outfielder has homered in back-to-back games, during which he has collected five RBI on three hits across 10 plate appearances. The 26-year-old has tallied at least one hit in four of his last five games, slashing .238/.227/.524 with six RBI and three runs scored across 22 plate appearances during that span.

Birdsong allowed three earned runs on four hits (two home runs) and two walks while striking out three across three innings of relief in Wednesday's 8-7 loss to the Diamondbacks. He also hit a batter and uncorked a wild pitch.

The 23-year-old entered the game for Jordan Hicks with no outs and two runners on base in the third inning. Birdsong surrendered a three-run homer to the first batter he faced and later gave up a two-run shot in the fourth. The right-hander struggled with his control, throwing 34 of his 65 pitches for strikes while generating nine whiffs. Over his last five appearances, Birdsong has recorded a 3.48 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and a 12:4 K:BB, allowing three home runs across 10.1 innings.

Bivens threw two scoreless innings in Wednesday's 8-7 loss to the Diamondbacks, surrendering two hits and a walk while striking out two.

Bivens turned in a solid performance in Wednesday's high-scoring matchup, allowing just two singles. The right-hander threw a season-high 39 pitches, 24 of which were strikes. The 30-year-old has allowed five earned runs (one home run) in his last five outings, recording a 5.40 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and a 5:2 K:BB across 8.1 innings.

Bennett gave up three runs on two hits and two walks while striking out four over three innings in his first start of the year for High-A Wilmington on Sunday.

Bennett, who underwent Tommy John surgery in September of 2023, made two rehab starts for Single-A Fredericksburg in early May, logging a 1.50 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and 7:0 K:BB in six innings. The 6-foot-6 lefty will likely get the bump to Double-A sometime this summer if he's holding his own, as he is already 24.

Ohtani went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk Wednesday against the Athletics in a 9-3 victory.

Ohtani jumped on Athletics starter Gunnar Hoglund's third pitch for a 403-foot blast in the first inning. The two-way star's bat has been so hot that the A's elected to intentionally walk him ahead of Mookie Betts with a runner on second in the eighth inning, though the strategy backfired when Betts doubled and Los Angeles went on to score five runs in the frame. Ohtani has been on a tear over his past 11 games, slashing .386/.491/.932 with six homers, four doubles, a triple, 12 RBI, 14 runs and a stolen base.
