bats

Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto pitched five innings but surrendered three runs and the team’s bats were quiet during a loss to the Pirates on Friday.

As of April, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health has documented two rabid bats this year, both around the Santa Clarita area.

After receiving two specially ordered bats from Harper — one blue and one pink — Turner then received a text telling him which one to hand to his teammate.

Given the way the Dodgers have swung the bats lately, however, Chicago didn’t need it.

On a windy 46-degree night in the nation’s capital, those long innings on defense did little to help the Dodgers’ bats warm up.
