LOS ANGELES (AP) — Mookie Betts tied his career high with five hits, doubling twice and driving in two runs to lead the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 6-2 victory over the Washington Nationals on Tuesday night.
Betts singled leading off the first against Patrick Corbin (0-3) and scored as Teoscar Hernández grounded into a double play. Betts hit an RBI double that increased the lead to 3-0 in the second, singled in the fourth, doubled and scored in the seventh and hit a run-scoring single that drove in the Dodgers’ final run in the eighth.
“You can’t really put extra pressure on yourself,” Betts said after helping the Dodgers to their second win in the past six games. “It’s not like I can just say, ‘Ooh, I’m gonna go get a hit’ and get a hit. Game doesn’t work that way, so extra pressure’s no good. We just have to keep playing the game.”
