LOS ANGELES -- As Corey Seager dug in against Javier Lopez in Saturday's 4-3 loss, there wasn't much from the game, this season or the opponent to expect power from the Dodgers' young star. And yet, the 21-year-old found a way to get ahold of a pitch and send it over the center-field wall to bring his club within one run.
Seager had been 0-for-3 in the game, consistently fooled by Johnny Cueto in one of the right-hander's stronger outings. He had been slugging .341, more than 200 points below last season's mark.
