Ohtani Leads the Offense<\/h2>\n\nAfter a series of adverse results, the Dodgers needed a boost. [Shohei Ohtani](https:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/player\/_\/id\/39832\/shohei-ohtani) responded immediately, hitting a home run on the second pitch of the game. Ohtani continued his outstanding performance with another home run in the third inning, adding his forty-eighth home run of the season.\n\n

Obviously, Shohei starting the game with a home run was huge. You could see the life in the dugout.<\/p>Dave Roberts, Dodgers Manager<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nThis victory was crucial for the team, especially after the defeat suffered the previous day, where [Yoshinobu Yamamoto](https:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/player\/_\/id\/4872587\/yoshinobu-yamamoto) was close to achieving a no-hitter, but a home run by [Jackson Holliday](https:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/player\/_\/id\/5080633\/jackson-holliday) in the ninth inning changed the course of the game, resulting in a 4-3 loss.\n\nThe losing streak, which began with three games lost against Pittsburgh, extended to five games, including two setbacks in the ninth inning.\n\n

We don’t lose much around here. It’s not something you get used to, but when it happens, baseball isn’t that fun.<\/p>Clayton Kershaw<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nThe team desperately needed this victory, and Ohtani set the tone from the start.\n\n

Whenever you get ahead early, it’s huge. It’s a good reset from last night, too, a quick 1-0 lead for us. That was good.<\/p>Clayton Kershaw<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n

Ohtani, who also received three walks, and [Mookie Betts](https:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/player\/_\/id\/33039\/mookie-betts), who also hit a home run, were key in the victory. [Clayton Kershaw](https:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/player\/_\/id\/28963\/clayton-kershaw) contributed with his sixth consecutive victory.\n\n

It was great. Shohei was on base five times and Mookie has been hitting very well. Overall, I liked the energy and I liked the way we played. Even the guys at the bottom [of the lineup] did their job today.<\/p>Dave Roberts, Dodgers Manager<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nThe victory made the trip back to Los Angeles much more bearable.\n\n

It’s not a surprise how we responded. There was no panic. Our guys weren’t down. We were upbeat, wanting to play a game and win it. That’s a sign that we still have confidence in the room.<\/p>Dave Roberts, Manager of the Dodgers<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n

He speaks of character and, certainly, when you have Shohei and Mookie doing what they are doing, that’s also helpful.<\/p>Dave Roberts, Manager of the Dodgers<\/cite><\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
