Hyeseong Kim and Max Muncy Steal the Spotlight in Dodgers’ Shocking 18-2 Rout of Yankees Without Shohei Ohtani’s Usual Showdown
LOS ANGELES — In a game where Mookie Betts didn’t play and Shohei Ohtani had just two singles, the Dodgers crushed the Yankees 18-2 on Saturday afternoon.
There was a common theme in L.A.’s series-clinching victory against the Bronx Bombers. And unlike Game 1 where the reigning NL MVP showed the world who the best player in the sport was with two homers, Saturday’s victory showed the other side of what makes the Dodgers so dangerous.

Their uncanny depth.
Because of Betts missing his second game due to a fractured toe, it opened the door for Hyeseong Kim to get his first start of the season at shortstop. Kim, who signed a three-year, $12.5 million deal this offseason, is another versatile player, something the Dodgers have coveted in recent years.
