After last night’s frustrating loss, the Dodgers could have used a laugher. Thankfully, that’s exactly what they got today as they pummeled the Brewers by a score of 11-2.
At first, the Dodgers looked stymied by the 86mph fastball of Brent Suter, but that changed in the second inning as the Dodgers exploded for five runs. They tacked on another against Suter in the third before he left the game with a forearm injury after making a play on a comebacker. The person most responsible for that early damage was Matt Kemp, who hit his 16th and 17th home runs of the season:

Manny Machado also contributed to the offensive outburst against Suter, crushing his first double as a Dodger.
