Ohtani hits 11th homer and Buehler returns as Dodgers defeat Marlins 6-3 for 4th straight win

Associated Press  

LOS ANGELES — Shohei Ohtani launched his fourth home run in three games and the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Miami Marlins 6-3 on Monday night in Walker Buehler’s first major league start in nearly two years. It’s a result of controlling the strike zone.” Two pitches after Ohtani’s homer, Freddie Freeman followed with a solo shot to left-center, the first time the Dodgers had gone back-to-back this season. “I wish it would have gone better and thrown five or six shutout innings, but it’s done and I’m glad to be back.” Ryan Yarbrough followed Buehler with three innings of one-hit ball, and Alex Vesia worked the ninth for his first save. Hernández’s solo shot in the third marked the second time in three games the Dodgers hit at least four homers.
