lineup. Mookie Betts was moved up to the leadoff spot despite his struggles, with a single just before Ohtani’s home run in the third inning.

But the Dodgers committed three errors with Clayton Kershaw on the mound, all while blowing a 3-0 lead in the fourth inning and a 4-3 lead in the sixth.

Kershaw gave up three runs (two earned) on five hits with one walk in 4 1/3 innings. He finished with two strikeouts.

The Brewers’ three-run fourth inning, to wipe out the Dodgers’ early lead, came as Tommy Edman made a throwing error, Andy Pages made an error on a line drive to center and Esteury Ruiz made a wild throw home that eventually led to a run.

Ruiz made his own error that led to Kershaw’s departure in the fifth. Frustrated as he reached the dugout, Kershaw fired his glove and cap toward the bench and knocked over a mini cooler while letting out multiple roars.

The Brewers eventually loaded the bases in the fifth before Alex Vesia extracted them from the mess when he struck out Blake Perkins. Ruiz tried to make amends with a home run in the bottom of the fifth to put the Dodgers ahead 4-3, but all hope for a single win against the Brewers was quickly lost.

Milwaukee delivered its second three-run inning in the sixth against a trio of pitchers in Vesia, Lou Trevino (3-1) and Will Klein. Isaac Collins delivered the big blow with a go-ahead, two-run single against Klein for a 6-4 advantage.

After Ruiz’s home run, the Dodgers didn’t have another hit until Tommy Edman singled with one out in the ninth. They loaded the bases and got within a run on an infield single from Dalton Rushing before Betts lined out to center to end the game.
