Dodgers crush Blue Jays behind Dalton Rushing's two homers

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Dalton Rushing (68) hits a home run against the Toronto Blue Jays during the eighth inning at Rogers Centre. TORONTO — The Dodgers didn’t just return to the site of last year’s crime scene — they turned it into a sequel no one in Toronto wanted to watch. Back inside Rogers Centre, where the Dodgers captured a Game 7 victory last fall, Monday night felt less like a rematch and more like a reminder.

A loud, relentless, 14-2 dismantling powered by five home runs — and a breakout performance from Dalton Rushing — stretched an early-season surge into something far more imposing. Over their last four games, the Dodgers have scored 45 runs. They hung 13 on Friday, 10 on Saturday, eight on Sunday, and then saved their most complete demolition for a national stage in Toronto.

Two games in their road blue jerseys, two offensive avalanches — 27 combined runs. The superstition can sort itself out later. For now, the bats are doing all the talking.

And they wasted no time again. Teoscar Hernandez goes deep to left field, giving the Dodgers a 2-0 lead in the first inning. @SportingTrib pic.
