DENVER (AP) — Shohei Ohtani had three hits, James Paxton pitched seven smooth innings and the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Colorado Rockies 9-5 in the opener of a four-game series between the top and bottom teams in the NL West. Miguel Rojas and Jason Heyward also had three hits apiece for the first-place Dodgers, who finished with 14. Freddie Freeman walked five times, one shy of a major league record. Ohtani doubled twice and has seven hits in his last 15 at-bats. Paxton permitted just two hits in his longest outing of the season. He had a season-high eight strikeouts and walked only one.
