Teoscar Hernández has started on the right foot in Los Angeles Dodgers and after 10 games in the franchise it has already entered the history books.
The Dominican slugger became the player with the most runs batted in (14) in the first 10 games. Hernández surpassed his compatriot Manny Ramírez, who drove in 13 runs.
Manny Ramírez was traded to the Dodgers in the 2008 season after shining with the Boston Red Sox.
That season, Manny left great numbers with the Los Angeles team. Ramírez hit .396 with 74 hits, 17 home runs, 53 runs batted in and 36 runs scored in 53 games for the Dodgers in 2008.
In this period of 10 games, Teoscar Hernández has 14 RBIs (leading in the Majors) and four home runs, second behind Mookie Betts with 5.
Hernández has a .300 batting average with 12 hits, 4 home runs, 14 RBIs and 9 runs scored in 10 games this season.
Will Smith and Jeff Kent drove in 12 runs in their first 10 games in a Dodgers uniform. After these 10 games, the Dodgers have a record of 7 wins and 3 losses.
Dodgers fall to Chicago Cubs despite Shohei Ohtani home run
The Japanese Shohei Ohtani homered and drove in two runs, but could not prevent the fall of the inspired Los Angeles Dodgers on his expedition to the Cubs’ home in Chicago.
This was the first time that Shohei Ohtani played at the legendary Wrigley Field in Chicago and he left his mark.
The Japanese’s hit traveled just 379 feet, but due to the exit speed of 105 miles per hour and a 32 degree angle it went right next to the foul pole.
Ohtani has already hit two home runs in consecutive days, an awakening after his slow start with the bat.
Dansby Swanson and Michael Busch hit the ball out of the park and Seiya Suzuki produced three laps for the Cubs.
The save for Chicago was credited to Venezuelan Adbert Alzolay (1) by completing the ninth without scoring runs.
Dominican Teoscar Hernández, with four runs, was the best for the Dodgers.
