Ohtani hits his 176th career home run, the most by a Japanese-born player in MLB, while Pages’ three-run shot is his first. Tyler Glasnow strikes out 10 in eight innings as the Dodgers salvag…
Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani celebrates in the dugout after hitting a two-run home run during the third inning of their 10-0 victory over the New York Mets on Sunday afternoon at Dodger Stadium. With milestone home runs from Shohei Ohtani and Andy Pages and eight scoreless innings from Tyler Glasnow, the Dodgers routed the New York Mets, 10-0, on Sunday afternoon, adding a life-affirming conclusion to a disappointing homestand.
Pages, meanwhile, had a double and a three-run home run in the Dodgers’ eight-run fifth inning. The home run was Pages’ first in the major leagues. All of that was comfort food for a Dodgers team that had to swallow a steady diet of underperforming offense and spotty starting pitching on this homestand. Their starters had a 5.11 ERA over the previous eight games, leaving the bullpen to cover nearly as many innings as the starters .The tall right-hander retired 10 of the first 11 Mets batters and faced the minimum 15 through five innings thanks to a pair of runners caught stealing by catcher Will Smith.
Freddie Freeman and Smith followed with back-to-back, two-run doubles. For Freeman, it was the second of two doubles in the game. Paired with two hits Saturday, it’s a positive sign after his 3-for-27 start to the homestand. Grant Hartwig replaced Houser and walked Max Muncy. Two batters later, Pages drove a 1-and-1 fastball at the bottom of the strike zone 413 feet over the wall in center field for his first homer in the big leagues. Since being promoted from Triple-A a week ago, Pages has gone just 4 for 18 but three of those hits have been for extra bases .
