Denver. – With an impressive offensive display, the Los Angeles Dodgers put the previous night's defeat behind them and convincingly defeated the Colorado Rockies 11-4 at Coors Field.
Shohei Ohtani shone again with his bat by hitting his 44th home run of the season, tying Kyle Schwarber (Phillies) for the National League lead. The Japanese figure was backed by Alex Call, who signed his best day as a Dodgers player with four hits, including his first home run with the franchise and a double.
"I think the key was to maintain intensity after scoring early, not to let our guard down," noted manager Dave Roberts, satisfied with his team's reaction after Monday's setback.
Will Smith added three hits, while Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, Teóscar Hernández, and Miguel Rojas contributed two hits each. The Los Angeles offense was so dominant that all the starters reached base with at least one hit.
On the mound, right-hander Emmet Sheehan completed six innings of work, in which he allowed four runs on six hits, two walks and seven strikeouts, enough to secure the victory.
The Dodgers built their attack early: two runs in the first inning, another two in the second, three in the third and three more in the seventh, leaving the home team with no options.
With this triumph, Los Angeles reaffirms its status as a contender in the National League, led by the power of Ohtani and the immediate impact of Call, recently arrived from the Nationals before the trade deadline.
