Rich Hill surrendered a home run on his second pitch of the game to Curtis Granderson, but the Los Angeles Dodgers erased their early deficit and went on for an 8-2 victory over the New York Mets. Yasmani Grandal led the Dodgers with two home runs, while Yasiel Puig had three RBI.
Mets rookie Tyler Pill didn’t allow a hit through three innings, yet oddly couldn’t prevent the Dodgers from tying the game. Joc Pederson’s leadoff walk in the third was followed by a T.J. Rivera throwing error that left runners on second and third base with nobody out.
