Mookie Betts and Andy Pages combined for three home runs while thriving from new spots in the batting order as the Los Angeles Dodgers rolled to a 15-6 victory over the visiting Colorado Rockies on Tuesday.
Betts homered twice while Pages, Enrique Hernandez and Will Smith also went deep as Los Angeles extended its winning streak to four games and won for the 11th time in 13 contests.
Left-hander Eric Lauer (2-5) went six strong innings in his Dodgers debut. He gave up one run on four hits with one walk and four strikeouts.
Starting in the cleanup spot for the first time since 2017, Betts homered in the first inning and had his first multi-homer game since May 19, 2025. He finished 3-for-5 with five RBIs.
Pages, moved up to the No. 2 spot for the first time this season, tied his career high with four hits.
Hunter Goodman, Brett Sullivan and Kyle Karros hit home runs for the Rockies. Left-hander Kyle Freeland (1-6) gave up season highs of eight hits and nine runs over four innings. He struck out four without issuing a walk.
Colorado lost its fourth consecutive game and fell for the seventh time in the past eight contests.
The Dodgers jumped in front 2-0 in the first inning when Betts hit a home run to center off Freeland.
Goodman pulled a run back for the Rockies in the second with a leadoff home run to center.
The Dodgers began to distance themselves in the third when Hernandez hit a leadoff home run and Pages went deep two batters later for a 4-1 lead. Hernandez was playing in his second game of the season after returning Monday from offseason elbow surgery, but he left the Tuesday game after the fourth inning because of a strained left oblique.
The Dodgers scored four more times in the fourth when Miguel Rojas came home on a wild pitch, Pages hit a two-run double and Freddie Freeman hit a sacrifice fly. Rojas (double) and Hyeseong Kim (sacrifice fly) brought home runs in the fifth.
Betts added a two-run homer and Smith delivered a three-run shot in the sixth for Los Angeles, which tied its season highs for runs and hits (17).
Sullivan and Karros hit home runs in the Rockies' five-run ninth against Rojas, who moved to the mound from third base.
