Bellinger, Betts Spur Dodgers' Game 3 Comeback to Keep World Series Hopes Alive

Mookie Betts and Cody Bellinger powered the Dodgers to a Game 3 win over the Braves, resuscitating Los Angeles's World Series repeat dreams after they appeared in serious danger of falling in a 3–0 hole in the best-of-seven series.

Bellinger launched a game-tying, three-run homer in the eighth inning off of Braves reliever Luke Jackson before Betts doubled home Chris Taylor later in the frame to grab a 6-5 lead that held up in the ninth.

Taylor singled to the left on the next pitch after Bellinger's homer, prompting an Atlanta pitching change to bring in reliever Jesse Chavez.
