A five o’clock arrival didn’t cool off the Dodger offense.
Friday, the Los Angeles Dodgers walloped the last place Kansas City Royals 9-to-3. The Dodgers rarely visit Kansas City.
Mookie Betts had his ninth leadoff home run, tying the Dodger record for the most leadoff homers in one season with Joc Pederson, and in the third, he homered again.
On 92 pitches with two outs in the sixth, Dave Roberts lifted Bobby Miller who allowed three runs and had four strikeouts. The Royals stole two bases leading to two runs. When Miller left the game, he was visibly rattled.
