Dodgers shook off a weekend scoring drought with an 8-2 win at Petco Park, riding a five-run seventh highlighted by Dalton Rushing’s three-run shot and Freeman’s two longer balls. Ohtani joined the party with a ninth-inning homer, cementing a disciplined, power-focused approach Roberts emphasized: grind with two strikes, work counts, and still unleash slugging prowess. The weekend skid ended as LA pulled into a first-place tie in the NL West.
