Bellinger was down 0-and-2 with two outs in the eighth inning when he came through for his first home run since July 1, a grand slam that broke a 1-1 tie.
LOS ANGELES — Blizzards for everyone.
Bellinger’s first home run since July 1 set off a blizzard of cheers. He came out of the dugout for a curtain call and chants of “Co-dy! Co-dy!” greeted him as he trotted out to center field for the ninth inning – heady stuff for a .208 hitter.With the score tied, 1-1, in the eighth, Freddie Freeman led off with his second hit of the night. After Will Smith flew out to the warning track in left field, Freeman moved up on a wild pitch.
Gavin Lux struck out – which should have been the third out of the inning. But Jake Lamb loaded the bases when he was hit by a pitch, setting up Bellinger’s heroics.Thursday night’s hero, Mookie Betts, led off with a single before Webb retired the next two batters. But then he walked three in a row, missing the strike zone 12 times in 16 pitches, to force in a run.
The Giants right-hander found his way back to the strike zone after that, though, and the Dodgers had missed an opportunity. Webb retired 11 of the next 14 batters he faced. Back-to-back singles by Trea Turner and Freddie Freeman with two outs in the fifth put some more heat on Webb but he got Will Smith to fly out.
