The San Diego Padres were recently swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers in a three-game weekend set, which took place at Dodger Stadium. Two of the three games were one-run games, and the Padres will have their chance at redemption later this week with three games against the Dodgers at Petco Park.

With their three-game sweep of the San Diego Padres, the Dodgers proved they are deeper and more focused than their budding NL West rivals.

Then Betts rescued the Dodgers with the 394-foot shot to left-center off Robert Suarez. It was the shortstop’s 13th homer of the season and just his fifth since June. Betts had 25 in 2022 and 39 in 2023.
