Miguel Rojas' Pinch-Hit Home Run in the 7th Lifts the Dodgers to a 4-3 Victory over the Rays
Miguel Rojas hit the Dodgers' first pinch-hit homer of the season as Los Angeles rallied from a 3-0 deficit.
On Monday, the Los Angeles Dodgers erased an early 3-0 deficit to beat the Tampa Bay Rays 4-3 at Dodger Stadium in the opener of a six-game homestand.
Tampa Bay took an early lead when Ryan Vilade connected on a 422-foot home run and Taylor Walls executed a safety squeeze to score Austin Slater in the second inning.
Kyle Tucker tied the game with a three-run home run in the second inning and later preserved the tie by throwing out a runner at home plate from right field.
Pinch-Hitter Miguel Rojas snapped the 3-all tie with a seventh-inning home run, while Kyle Hurt earned the win and Tanner Scott secured his eighth save.
Yandy Diaz saw his 27-game on-base streak end in the loss, while Rays RHP Drew Rasmussen looks to extend his 14-inning scoreless streak against LHP Justin Wrobleski on Tuesday.
