Kansas City Royals at Los Angeles Dodgers

Returning home to Chavez Ravine provided the Dodgers with the exact reset they needed on Monday night. With the Dodgers working through a demanding stretch and searching for a spark to respond after dropping three consecutive series, the stage was set for Max Muncy on his own bobblehead giveaway night -- before Freddie Freeman delivered the decisive blow to secure a 6-5 victory over the Royals. After Tarik Skubal fell behind early in his Dodgers home debut, Los Angeles battled through six tight innings before finding the dramatic swing it had been seeking in the bottom of the sixth. With two on and two out, manager Dave Roberts matched urgency with action, calling on pinch-hitter Kyle Tucker to bat for Teoscar Hernández against right-hander John Schreiber. Tucker drew a walk to load the bases, setting the stage for Muncy to line a bases-clearing three-run double to right field. The clutch hit brought home Tommy Edman, Miguel Rojas and Tucker, electrifying the Dodger Stadium crowd and surging the Dodgers to a 5-3 lead.
