LOS ANGELES — Shohei Ohtani hit a 473-foot home run and the Los Angeles Dodgers went deep six times in a 9-6 victory over the Boston Red Sox. Freddie Freeman, Teoscar Hernández, Gavin Lux, Austin Barnes and Jason Heyward also connected as Los Angeles swept the three-game series. It was the 25th time the Dodgers launched at least six homers in a game and first since 2022 against Kansas City. Five came off Boston starter Kutter Crawford. Jarren Duran, the MVP of last Tuesday's All-Star Game, homered and drove in four runs for the Red Sox, who fell a game behind the Royals for the final AL wild card. James Paxton allowed three runs and struck out seven in five innings for the win. Daniel Hudson earned his sixth save.
