Mookie Betts shines at plate, on bases, in field in Dodgers' win over Braves
“He might have, but it might’ve come at a cost,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said.
With the win, the Dodgers will begin September a half-game behind the first-place San Francisco Giants, who lost to Milwaukee Brewers, in the National League West with 29 games to go. It’s the closest the Dodgers have been to first place since July 6.Betts submitted the first highlight in the second inning when he ran unto the short wall in right field to steal a home run from Travis d’Arnaud.
On the other side, Joc Pederson returned to Los Angeles this week as a member of the Braves after visiting with the Chicago Cubs earlier in the season. He was traded in July because the Cubs gave up on their season and the Braves sought replacements for All-Star Ronald Acuña Jr., who suffered a season-ending knee injury last month.
