Dodgers Rebound in 10-5 Win Over Rockies, Split Series

The Dodgers finished their seven-game trip at 3-4.

Joc Pederson had three hits and three RBIs, Matt Beaty doubled twice and drove in two, and the Los Angeles Dodgers rallied past the Colorado Rockies 10-5 Sunday to split their four-game series.

Kenta Maeda pitched into the fifth but didn't figure in the decision. He had a hand in the Dodgers' first two runs, though, singling and scoring in the third and laying down a sacrifice bunt that helped bring Kiké Hernandez home in the fifth.

Dylan Floro (3-2) got two outs to pick up the win and Julio Urias helped keep the Rockies in check with three scoreless innings in relief.

The Dodgers finished their seven-game trip at 3-4.

David Dahl, a first-time NL All-Star who learned of his selection during the game, homered for the Rockies. Shortstop Trevor Story and right fielder Charlie Blackmon also were selected. Blackmon connected for his 20th homer of the season — a solo shot — with two outs in the ninth.

Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado and the Dodgers' Cody Bellinger were selected in fan balloting announced earlier. In addition, Dodgers pitchers Clayton Kershaw, Walker Buehler and Hyun-Jin Ryu were selected for the NL squad.

Los Angeles vaulted back in front with a six-run burst in the sixth, a rally that pinch-hitter Justin Turner sparked when he was hit by a pitch by reliever Chad Bettis (1-4) with the bases loaded. Pederson followed with a two-run single, Beaty had an RBI double, and Max Muncy an RBI single along with Bellinger's run-scoring fielder's choice as the Dodgers moved in front 9-4.
