5-2 Win Takes Dodgers to 14-8
The timely hitting of Brent Rooker helped the Los Angeles Dodgers down the Texas Rangers, 5-2. Rooker went 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Dodgers. Kenta Maeda got credit for the win, improving to 3-1. He allowed 2 runs on 6 hits in 5.1 innings. The Rangers drop to 10-11 and continue their mediocre start to the 2024 season.

The Dodgers got a big at-bat from designated hitter Marcell Ozuna. For the game, Ozuna went 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. In the bottom of the fifth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 5th home run of the season gave Los Angeles a 3-2 lead.

"One win at a time, one game at a time. We try not to get too far ahead of ourselves," Rooker told the Los Angeles Times.
