Mookie Betts’ thunderbolt from right field elicits memories of the game-altering defensive plays he made for the Dodgers last year against Atlanta.
Cody Bellinger seemed like the last player in the Dodgers’ lineup to spark a scoring surge until he did just that in NLDS Game 2 against the Giants.
“I think the Giants, they take the momentum and it sort of builds,” Roberts said. “So when you can kind of take the wind out of their sail on a big play like that, it just kind of resets things.”Offense is critical, obviously. The Dodgers won on Saturday because they were able to string together hits, something they couldn’t do in their series-opening loss the previous day.
There was also the leaping catch Betts made at the wall to steal an extra-base hit from Ozuna in Game 6. Betts’ latest throw came right after the Dodgers had scored four runs in the top of the sixth inning to take a 6-1 lead. Urias was removed from the game for a pinch hitter, prompting on Roberts to call on Joe Kelly to pitch the bottom half of the inning.
There were two out with runners on the corners when Crawford singled to right. Wade scored easily, but Flores made the mistake of testing Betts’ arm and tried to advance from first to third. Betts showed up to the postgame news conference in a cap and hooded sweatshirt. His sweatpants’ left pocket was turned inside-out. His shoelaces were untied.Patience at the plate pays off: Takeaways from Dodgers’ win against Giants
