Cody Bellinger hit a tying, three-run homer and Mookie Betts then lined an RBI double in the L.A. Dodgers’ eighth-inning rally, storming back to beat the Atlanta 6-5 Tuesday and cutting the Braves’ lead in the series to 2-1.
Bellinger drove a shoulder-high, 95.6-mph fastball from Luke Jackson into the right-field pavilion, igniting the blue towel-waving crowd and reviving the hopes of the defending World Series champions.
Chris Taylor singled, stole second and moved to third on pinch-hitter Matt Beaty’s groundout. Betts followed with the double off Jesse Chavez to right-center.
Game 4 is today at Dodger Stadium.
