LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers made quick work of the New York Yankees in the opener of their three-game series Friday night at Dodger Stadium, and probably no one on Los Angeles shined brighter than Mookie Betts, who is no stranger to facing the Yanks.
The Dodgers kept their foot on the gas, as they brought in two more more runs on the night, and never let the Yankees dig themselves out thanks to Kershaw's arm.
Kershaw limited reigning American League MVP Aaron Judge to no hits and struck him out twice. Judge is looking to have another stellar season as he is already second in the league in home runs . One of the bright spots in the loss for New York was Donaldson, who, like Betts, homered twice and finished with three RBIs.
Kershaw, 35, is taking on a heavier load as the Dodgers deal with injuries, but he continues to show his ability to produce and his value, after He spoke about getting back to the level he knows he can produce at, particularly after what he called three"bad" outings in which he pitched 12.2 innings and gave up 10 earned runs.The Dodgers will look to stay hot against the Yankees for the next two games of this series, and hope to keep Judge quiet while also making the most of what they got on their current roster.Your browser does not support HTML5 audio.
