Mookie Betts hit a two-run single in Los Angeles' three-run eighth inning, and the Dodgers beat the Miami Marlins 3-1 on Saturday in the opener of a split-doubleheader.
The doubleheader was scheduled by Major League Baseball out of concern over the forecast for Hurricane Hillary, which likely will cross into the southwest U.S. as a tropical storm. The twin-bill takes the place of the previously scheduled series finale on Sunday. Bryan De La Cruz hit an RBI double in the fourth against Ryan Pepiot, and Miami carried the 1-0 lead into the eighth. But it quickly fell apart from there.
Betts followed with a single to center. After Freddie Freeman doubled and Will Smith popped out, Max Muncy was intentionally walked to load the bases. But Amed Rosario grounded out, ending the inning.
