San Francisco Giants at Los Angeles Dodgers

LOS ANGELES -- Rafael Devers homered early and drew a bases-loaded walk that broke a seventh-inning tie as the San Francisco Giants beat the scuffling Los Angeles Dodgers 9-3 on Monday night in the opener of a four-game series. Willy Adames added a two-run single in the seventh against a shaky Dodgers bullpen. The two-time defending World Series champions have dropped eight of 12, including three straight blowout losses, as their offense continues to falter. They’ve scored three runs or fewer in nine of those 12 games. Shohei Ohtani went 0 for 5 with two strikeouts, making the four-time MVP hitless in 19 of 37 games with a plate appearance. Mookie Betts was 1 for 5 with a single in his first game since April 4 after returning from the injured list.
