Dodgers 15, Rockies 6: Betts Homers Twice with Five RBI in Offensive Breakout

The lead

May 26, 2026 - Los Angeles - Mookie Betts homered twice and drove in five runs, Andy Pages tied a career high with four hits, and the Los Angeles Dodgers routed the Colorado Rockies 15-6 at Dodger Stadium, per the Associated Press recap on CBS Sports.

Kiké Hernández and Will Smith also homered as Los Angeles tied its season high in runs and won for the ninth time in 11 games.

How the game turned

Betts broke a .165 slump with a two-run, two-out homer off Kyle Freeland (1-6) in the first. Hunter Goodman answered for Colorado in the second, but Hernández homered leading off the third in his season debut after elbow surgery.

Pages' 418-foot solo shot made it 4-1. A four-run fourth—including Pages' two-run double and Freddie Freeman's sacrifice fly—pushed the lead to 8-1. Betts' three-run homer and Smith's two-run shot in the sixth made it 15-1.

Colorado scored five in the ninth against position player Miguel Rojas on the mound.

Eric Lauer (2-5) earned the win in relief. Freeland allowed eight runs in 5⅔ innings. Hernández left with a left oblique strain in the fifth.
