Mookie Betts returns to lineup

Mookie Betts made a strong return to the Los Angeles Dodgers after nearly two months on the injured list due to a broken left hand. In his first game back, he hit a two-run home run against the Milwaukee Brewers and was moved back to right field, a position he is familiar with, after primarily playing shortstop this season. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts decided the change was beneficial for the team, allowing Shohei Ohtani to remain in the leadoff spot where he has excelled. Betts was batting .304 with 10 home runs and 40 RBIs prior to his injury and expressed confidence in his ability to perform well in right field. The Dodgers also designated utilityman Amed Rosario for assignment to accommodate Betts' return. As Betts resumes play, he aims to contribute significantly to the team's success as they head into the latter part of the season.
