After snapping career-worst slump Tuesday, Betts hits first homer since July 5 off Max Scherzer to lift Dodgers to 5-1 win in Clayton Kershaw’s six-inning duel between future Hall of Famers.

The Los Angeles Dodgers lost a series to the St Louis Cardinals by dropping the rubber game on Wednesday. The one game they won was thanks in part to Mookie Betts, who got an ovation from the Dodgers fans amid his tough season. He racked up three hits in the 12-6 win on Tuesday and spoke about the ovation after the game.
