Julio Urías was highly effective in six innings, and the Dodgers beat the Cleveland Guardians 7-1 on a day in which Sandy Koufax's statue was unveiled.
Eight Dodgers had one hit in their first two at-bats against Guardians starter Cal Quantrill, and the ninth, Barnes, drove in the first run with a sacrifice fly. The onslaught continued against the bullpen, with the Dodgers tacking on runs in the sixth and seventh innings.“We got that one early to tie the game, then we hit the homer, but the next inning was the biggest because we just kept going and going,” said Trea Turner, who has hit in 10 straight games and 37 of the last 38.
Before the Dodgers batted in the first inning, clips from Koufax’s statue unveiling earlier in the day were shown on the video board oflauding his mentor and an unexpectedly ebullient Koufax expressing sincere thanks to family, fans and former teammates. The video ended and the public address announcer recognized Koufax. The crowd thundered with applause as he stood and waved, turning to the cheering fans, raising his arms high above his head, smiling and waving some more. Koufax relished the moment, then the 50,078 fans enjoyed a one-sided win.
