The Dodgers were held to one run on three hits in the first seven innings on a cold and rainy night, but the offense broke out in the eighth in a 7-2 win.
MINNEAPOLIS — A group of Dodgers spent part of the off day on Monday at Minnesota’s tourist-flytrap Mall of America. Some apparently spent time in an attraction called “The Escape Game,” using clues to find their way through the challenge.
The players were not given that option and played on through the rain with 15-mph winds adding to the overall experience. A downpour in the bottom of the eighth inning caused an 88-minute delay before play resumed and the Dodgers closed out the victory – less than 12 hours before the scheduled first pitch of Wednesday’s game.
Cody Bellinger drew a walk and stole second base. Chris Taylor drew a walk to fill the vacated first base and the two moved up on a double steal. Gavin Lux drove Bellinger in with a 399-foot sacrifice fly to the warning track in straightaway center field. Those wasted opportunities were worrisome as the score remained tied 1-1 through seven innings. The first six batters reached base in the eighth, however, with walks – and Luis Arráez – again providing the fuel.
