Dodgers Beat Athletics 9-3 as Roberts Reaches 1,000 Wins

Tommy Edman hit his first home run of the season and drove in four runs as the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Athletics 9-3 on Tuesday night. Dave Roberts earned his 1,000th career managerial victory, becoming the fastest manager in MLB history to reach the milestone in 1,606 games.

The Dodgers took a 2-0 lead in the first inning on Mookie Betts' RBI single and Teoscar Hernandez's sacrifice fly. The Athletics answered in the bottom of the inning when Shea Langeliers scored on Jonah Heim's single. Edman connected for a three-run homer off Athletics starter Jeffrey Springs in the third inning. Miguel Rojas added a solo home run in the sixth.

Wrobleski struck out a career-high 11 batters over seven innings and allowed three runs. Springs gave up six runs and eight hits in 5 1/3 innings. Brock Stewart and Wyatt Mills each retired three batters to close out the game for the Dodgers.

Roberts became the 69th manager to reach 1,000 wins and the quickest to do so. Detroit manager A.J. Hinch reached the same mark one day earlier. The Dodgers have won seven of their last eight games and four straight entering Wednesday's series finale.
