May 2, 2021 : Beaty and Pollock Slam the Brewers

May second, 2021.

The Dodgers were playing the last game of a four-game set in Milwaukee. The Dodgers had lost the previous three games to the Brewers. The day before, they lost in 11 innings, 6-5. They were 1-6 in their last seven games.

They were a half-game out of first place, but they desperately needed a win. Julio Urias got the start against Alec Bettinger. A rookie. The Dodgers needed a fast start, and boy, did they get it.

They would score five runs off of the rookie, capped by an AJ Pollock grand slam to deep center field.
