Game Summary
Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Kansas City Royals 5-4 in 10 innings. The Dodgers prevailed thanks to Mookie Betts’ huge 3-for-4 game (home run, double, 2 RBI) and Max Muncy’s game-winning single in the bottom of the 10th that scored Shohei Ohtani. Kansas City rallied in the eighth — keyed by Jac Caglianone’s run-scoring single and a Salvador Perez RBI — to take a 4-3 lead, but Betts tied it in the bottom of the eighth and Muncy ended it in extras. Michael Wacha worked 6.2 innings, allowing three earned runs with five strikeouts, and relievers Nate Pearson, Alex Vesia and Edgardo Henriquez tossed scoreless frames late. Lucas Erceg took the loss.
