Allows one run as opener Knebel allowed one run on two hits in one inning as the opener Tuesday against the Cardinals. He did not factor in the decision.
Impact Knebel coughed up a run on a single, a ground-rule double and a sacrifice fly -- just the fourth earned run Knebel has given up in 12.1 innings since he returned from an extended absence due to a lat injury. Mitch White was expected to pitch in long relief behind Knebel on Tuesday, but at the last minute the team decided to push White back to start Wednesday's game.

Opening Tuesday vs. Cards Knebel will serve as the opener Tuesday against the Cardinals, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.
Impact Per David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports, Mitch White is set to work as the primary pitcher behind Knebel. This new role is a tough break for those who had been rostering Knebel in holds or saves plus holds leagues, as all he can do is help in strikeouts and ratios. He has a 2.38 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 10 strikeouts in 11.1 innings since coming off the injured list Aug. 10.

Serving as opener Knebel will serve as the opener for Saturday's game against the Rockies, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
Impact Knebel has filled that same role once already this season back in mid-August, marking his first start of his seven-year major-league career. He was asked to throw only a single inning on that occasion and hasn't recorded more than four outs in any of his 16 appearances this season, so it's unlikely he pitches deep into this contest. David Price, who was originally listed as Saturday's starter, will likely follow him out of the bullpen.

Picks up win in extras Knebel (3-0) earned the win over the Padres on Wednesday but allowed two runs (one earned) on one hit and a walk while striking out a batter over an inning of work.
Impact Knebel entered the game in the 15th inning trying to close out a 3-1 lead but was unable to do so. He retired the first batter he faced but then served up a game-tying, two-run homer to Fernando Tatis, which extended the game for another frame. The 29-year-old righty was still afforded the win after the Dodgers retook the lead in the top of the 16th off a two-run blast from AJ Pollock. Knebel has now given up runs in back-to-back outings after he had six straight scoreless appearances coming off the 60-day injured list earlier this month. For the year, Knebel owns a 4.15 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 16:6 K:BB over 13 innings.

Set to start Thursday Knebel will start Thursday's game against the Mets, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
Impact Knebel will make the first start of his MLB career with the Dodgers employing a bullpen game Thursday. The right-hander has pitched well when healthy this season with a 2.89 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 13:4 K:BB, though he's been limited to 9.1 innings.

Picks up third save Knebel worked one-third of an inning in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Mets and got his man to record his third save of the season.
Impact Knebel was summoned to get the final out in the tenth inning of Saturday's game against the Mets. Facing the pesky Brandon Nimmo, he got the Mets' center fielder to ground out to first to end the game. The Dodgers clearly aren't shying away from giving the 29-year-old high-leverage assignments, even with this being just his third outing since returning from a lat injury that cost almost four months of the season.
