The Dodgers hit four home runs in the sixth inning and have little trouble defeating the Texas Rangers.
The Dodgers thought they had found a spark during their series win over the New York Yankees last weekend. Turns out, after a month of mostly middling play from the first-place ball club, they might have actually lit a raging, relentless summertime fire. In their encore to a successful showdown in the Bronx, the Dodgers returned home to dismantle the defending World Series champions Tuesday night, cruising to a 15-2 rout of the Texas Rangers — their most lopsided win all year.
And, a month after the Dodgers staged a 14-2 run to pull away in the National League West standings, the team now appears to be on the verge of another scorching stretch in the schedule, enjoying contributions from all parts of the lineup, and all corners of the pitching staff, en route to winning four of their last five games. Tuesday’s blowout began with a blast, when Will Smith carried a fly ball just deep enough for a three-run homer in the bottom of the first.
