The Los Angeles Dodgers secured their second consecutive blowout victory against the Washington Nationals, but shortstop Mookie Betts exited the game in the first inning due to lower right back pain. He walked and scored before being replaced by Miguel Rojas and is scheduled for an MRI to assess the injury’s severity. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts indicated Betts would miss at least the next few days, with potential roster adjustments depending on the MRI results. Betts has had a challenging start to the season, hitting .179 with a 103 wRC+ across 32 plate appearances.
