Dodgers Score Season-High 19 Runs, Four Homers in Blowout Over A’s

The Los Angeles Dodgers showcased a dominant offensive performance against the Athletics, highlighted by multiple home runs from Shohei Ohtani, Andy Pages, Hyeseong Kim, and Max Muncy. Ohtani tied for the major league lead with his 15th home run of the season and contributed a two-run homer, while Kim hit his first career home run and Muncy capped a five-run eighth inning with a three-run shot. The Dodgers scored early and often, taking advantage of extra-base hits and aggressive base running to build a commanding lead. On the pitching side, Yoshinobu Yamamoto and other Dodgers pitchers limited the Athletics to three runs, with relief pitching shutting down the A's late in the game. This offensive explosion helped the Dodgers even a three-game series and maintain momentum following a strong late rally in their previous game. The Athletics struggled to contain the Dodgers' balanced attack despite some home run contributions of their own, ultimately falling 9-3.
