Reds Walk Off Dodgers in Spring Training Home Run Fest
The Los Angeles Dodgers hit some big home runs on Thursday, but it still wasn’t enough to top the Cincinnati Reds’ five dingers in a 14-13 spring training game.
It was the final shot, a three-run homer by Rece Hinds off Dodgers pitcher Jordan Weems, that doomed the Boys in Blue, ho entered the final frame with a 13-10 lead.
Weems, however, was unable to get the save — or even a single out.
But he was far from alone in struggling on the mound.
Dodgers pitcher Cole Irvin gave up a pair of first-inning home runs, two-run shots each by Elly De La Cruz and Will Benson, then another two-run shot by Matt McLain in the second.
