BOTTOM LINE: The Los Angeles Dodgers lead 1-0 in a three-game series with the Colorado Rockies. Colorado is 18-61 overall and 8-30 at home. The Rockies have hit 77 total home runs to rank 10th in the NL. Los Angeles is 19-17 on the road and 49-31 overall. The Dodgers have gone 19-4 in games when they did not allow a home run.

However, Juan Mejia was unable to stave off the Dodgers offense in the ninth, surrendering a double to Teoscar Hernández that scored Max Muncy. Heading into the bottom of the ninth, the score was 9-7. Ryan McMahon bunted his way onto first (you read that correctly) with one out before Brenton Doyle hit into a game-ending double play.

Michael Conforto homered and doubled, Shohei Ohtani also went deep and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the scuffling Colorado Rockies 9-7 on Tuesday night in Denver.
