- Freddie Freeman drove in four runs on four hits, including a two-run homer, and Trea Turner hit a go-ahead, three-run double for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who beat the San Diego Padres 8-4 on Saturday night to reduce to four their magic number for...
"I'm just trying to be a good hitter and sometimes it goes over the fence," Freeman said. "When guys get on I just want to see them keep making left turns. All four hits were with guys on base today."
Urías held San Diego to two runs and five hits. He struck out five and walked two. He loaded the bases with two outs in the first but then struck out"He was outstanding," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. "I'm having a hard time coming up with adjectives to describe him and what he's done for us. Just to get through that first inning, his pitch count got up a little bit but the next six were really clean. He threw the baseball really well.
Machado hit a moonshot homer to left with two outs in the third and another one to right with one out in the sixth. He has 28. "You've got to tip your hat to him," Urías said through a translator. "He's obviously a really good hitter and he's seeing me really well. Hopefully down the road if I see him again, I'll go look at the video and make those adjustments and see if we can get him out next time."WILLIE O'REE
Hockey Hall of Famer Willie O'Ree, the first Black player in the NHL, was at the game for a sponsor promotion and spent several minutes visiting with Roberts, bench coach Bob Geren and right fielder. O'Ree lives in suburban La Mesa, and Roberts and Geren went to San Diego-area high schools. O'Ree was wearing a Padres cap in their old blue-and-white color scheme, and Geren went into the Dodgers clubhouse and got him a new LA cap.
