Rodriguez Rips 2 Home Runs in 7-5 Dodgers Triumph
The Brooklyn Dodgers beat the Kansas City Royals by a score of 7-5. Brooklyn center fielder Mike Rodriguez deserved the lion's share of the credit. Rodriguez slugged 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice for the Dodgers. Ernesto Pina earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 3 hits in 2.2 innings. His record is now 1-0. Picking up the save was 24-year old right-handed pitcher Joe Johnson.

Rodriguez had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the sixth. On a 1-1 knuckle curve from C.J. Triplett, he banged a 3-run home run to left-center, giving the Dodgers a 6-3 lead. It was the 9th home run of the year for Rodriguez.

"I'm just out there trying to have as much fun as I can while I'm playing," Rodriguez told the Brooklyn Daily.

The Dodgers raised their record to 15-22.
