Mookie Betts snapped a season-long batting rut with a go-ahead, 394-foot blast off Robert Suárez in the eighth inning, lifting the Dodgers to a 5-4 win and a two-game NL West lead over San Diego. Betts, who had battled a stomach- virus-related slump, delivered when LA needed him most, pairing with Freddie Freeman’s earlier homer and a steady, late-game performance from the bullpen. The win capped a weekend sweep of the Padres and reinforced LA’s position atop the division, while Betts began to look like the player fantasy managers hoped to see all year.
