The Los Angeles Dodgers capped off their road trip by slugging five home runs in a 14-4 blowout at Citi Field to complete a series sweep of the New York Mets. L.A. improved to 21-4 in their last 25 games against New York.
Back in the lineup for the first time since being removed on Aug. 8 because of left groin discomfort, Justin Turner opened the scoring for the Dodgers with a two-run home run off Carlos Carrasco in the first inning.
Will Smith added to Carrasco’s troubles two batters later with his third home run in as many games.
