Walker Buehler made his 2020 Spring Training debut on Saturday but it was overshadowed by the Los Angeles Dodgers erupting at Salt River Fields for a 14-2 win over the Colorado Rockies to complete a split-squad sweep.
The Dodgers’ traveling roster was propelled by a slew of extra-base hits, including four home runs. The first was courtesy of Zach Reks, giving the Dodgers a 1-0 lead in the second inning.
That remained the score until the team batted around — and them some — in an 11-run fifth. Cody Thomas provided some breathing room with a solo blast and clubbed a two-run homer later in the inning.
