Two of the three outs that Kopech recorded in the outing came via the strikeout and he threw 10 of his 14 total pitches for strikes. His fastball touched 99.7 mph twice during the ballgame. That’s a stark contrast to Friday’s appearance in which he walked all five hitters that he faced in his first rehab outing. It’s unclear how many more tune-ups he’ll need in the minor leagues before the Dodgers feel comfortable activating him from the injured list.

The 35-year-old slugger opened the scoring in the contest with a run-scoring double off of Zac Gallen in the opening inning. He tacked on a run with a sacrifice fly in the fifth inning and then clobbered a 405-foot solo shot off of Joe Mantiply in the seventh inning that extended the Dodgers’ advantage to 5-0. He has been absolutely sizzling at the dish this season, slashing .376/.437/.734 with nine homers and 33 RBI. The only thing that he hasn’t done from a fantasy perspective is run, with zero stolen bases in one attempt.

Betts put the exclamation point on the victory for the Dodgers with a first-pitch, 393-foot (101.8 mph EV) solo shot off of Jose Castillo in the ninth inning. With his three-hit attack, the dynamic 32-year-old shortstop is now slashing .272/.351/.435 with six homers, 24 RBI and three stolen bases on the season.

The 30-year-old right-hander scattered three hits and a pair of walks on the afternoon while striking out four. Gonsolin got seven swings and misses on 84 pitches on the day — three of those on his fastball which averaged 93.5 mph — while posting a CSW of 31 percent. He’ll bring an impressive 2.81 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 21/4 K/BB ratio (16 innings) into Saturday’s showdown against the Angels.

It didn’t necessarily have anything to do with his exit, but Kurtz was checked on by the trainer today after jamming his glove hand into Orlando Cabrera’s body on a play at first base. His three at-bats before leaving produced two groundouts and a strikeout.

Walker is quietly 20-for-65 (.307) with two home runs and 11 RBI over his last 17 games. Of course, he was hitting .156 with two home runs and four RBI in the first 21 games of the season. Still, it appears the Astros’ big free agent acquisition is finally starting to figure it out at the plate after an injury derailed his spring training and slow start to the season.

After starting the season 4-for-43, Contreras has been on a roll. The month of May has also been kind to him, as he’s gone 12-for-34 (.353) with three home runs and 12 RBI in 10 games. It seems the draft price on him as a catcher who was going to play every day at first base will wind up being worth it in the end.
