Betts and Kiermaier homer as Dodgers rally to beat skidding Cardinals 7-6
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Mookie Betts and Kevin Kiermaier homered in a five-run sixth inning, and the Los Angeles Dodgers came back to beat the skidding St. Louis Cardinals 7-6 on Friday night. The offensive outburst gave Justin Wrobleski his first major league win. The left-hander was called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City earlier in the day to make his fifth career start. “Huge win,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. “Tonight, we got contributions from everyone. And you know, it wasn’t the best pitched game, but offensively, we came through.” Wrobleski (1-1) allowed four runs and four hits — including three homers — in five innings as the NL West leaders stopped a two-game skid.

Shohei Ohtani Provides Only Offense In Dodgers Loss To Cardinals

Bobby Miller’s struggles continued as he made the start in place of Tyler Glasnow, who was placed on the 15-day injured list due to right elbow tendinitis.

Although he only walked one, his command was awful all game and his velocity trended down each inning after coming out in the first touching 100 mph....
