Dodgers defeat the Mariners, 3-2
Dodgers 3, Seattle Mariners 2
AT THE PLATE: Outfielder Alex Castellanos, bidding for a bench spot, hit a game-winning, two-run home run in the seventh inning. Castellanos has a team-high three homers this spring. Right fielder Andre Ethier doubled, his third extra-base hit in 12 spring at-bats.
ON THE MOUND: Aaron Harang gave up two runs and six hits in three innings, lowering his spring earned-run average to 10.80. Shawn Tolleson, Kenley Jansen, Brandon League, J.P. Howell, Kevin Gregg and Paco Rodriguez each pitched a scoreless relief inning.
EXTRA BASES: Center fielder Matt Kemp is hitless in 15 at-bats this spring, with six strikeouts. “Matt just needs time,” Manager Don Mattingly said. “That’s what we’ll keep giving him. He’s coming off a pretty good surgery. He’s a little behind guys. It’s just a matter of him getting his rhythm and timing.”
UP NEXT: vs. Colorado, 1 PDT at Salt River Fields. On the air: Radio: 570, 1020.
