Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, Teoscar Hernández and Jason Heyward homered in a seven-run sixth inning as the Los Angeles Dodgers routed the defending World Series champion Texas Rangers 15-2.

Ohtani's 16th homer of the season traveled 433 feet and at 114.2 mph and was his second hardest-hit shot of the season. It came off reliever Grant Anderson and scored Mookie Betts, who walked. Freeman followed with a shot to left-center. The last time the Dodgers homered four times in an inning was on Sept. 29, 2021, against the San Diego Padres.
“I hate using a position player,” Bochy said. “But we had to keep the bullpen in order the first game of a road trip.”
