J.D. Martinez had two RBI singles and drew a bases-loaded walk for the Dodgers, who played at Globe Life Field for the first time since winning the 2020 World Series, National League Championship Series and NL Division Series there in the neutral-site postseason during the COVID-19 pandemic. The NL West-leading Dodgers went in front to stay when Freeman came home to make it 6-5 on Max Muncy’s fielder’s choice grounder. Smith added a two-run double in the eighth inning, and Mookie Betts had one in the ninth.
Freeman had an opposite-field double into the left-center gap in the third inning, then scored on the Martinez single for a 3-2 Dodgers lead. Freeman’s 18th homer was a solo shot with two outs in the fifth to tie the score at 4-all.
