Rookie James Outman's grand slam in the ninth inning broke a tie and lifted the Dodgers to a 6-2 win over the Chicago Cubs on Thursday in Chicago.
James Outman has two homers, including a grand slam, and Mookie Betts plays shortstop as Dodgers get back to .500 with win.“He just keeps getting better, which is scary.”
His fourth-inning throw from right field was his most athletic play, delivering a strike to nab the trailing runner on an RBI single that otherwise would have put the Cubs in front. The moment the ball rocketed off his bat — a drive to right field that rattled around the bleachers — Outman’s typically stoic on-field demeanor immediately began to fade.
Outman wasn’t the only hero on Thursday, producing his game-winning hit only after Betts saved the night defensively. But a couple of hours before the game, Roberts said Betts was not only en route to Chicago, but could be activated if he could reach the ballpark in time.
