Trea Turner once again set the table and AJ Pollock swung a hot bat in the Los Angeles Dodgers’ 8-2 win over the L.A. Angels in the rubber match of the Freeway Series. The Dodgers kept pace with the National League West-leading San Francisco Giants and finished 3-2 on their homestand.
Turner didn’t take long to help the Dodgers jump out to an early lead as he led off the bottom of the first inning with a double. Max Muncy then beat the shift with an RBI single through the vacated area at shortstop.
AJ Pollock kept the string of hits alive with a double, and Justin Turner reached on a fielder’s choice that scored Muncy because José Iglesias’ throw to home plate was high.
