Shohei Ohtani roughed up as Rockies top Dodgers

Hunter Goodman had three hits and three RBIs, Jordan Beck also had three hits to back six solid innings by Tanner Gordon, and the Colorado Rockies beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 8-3 in Denver on Wednesday night.

Tyler Freeman, Brenton Doyle and Mickey Moniak had two hits each for Colorado, which took advantage of a shaky night by Dodgers starter Shohei Ohtani to win for the fifth time in six games.

Teoscar Hernandez homered and Miguel Rojas had two hits and two RBIs for Los Angeles, which is 14-16 since the All-Star break.

The Dodgers got a scare when a comebacker by Orlando Arcia hit Ohtani in the right thigh during Colorado's three-run fourth inning. Ohtani fielded the ball but was in visible pain, and the trainer and manager Dave Roberts came to the mound.

Ohtani stayed in the game after throwing one warmup pitch but left for a pinch hitter in the eighth.

The Rockies jumped on Ohtani in the second inning. Beck led off with a single, and after Warming Bernabel hit into a fielder's choice, Moniak singled, Doyle had an RBI double and Arcia hit a sacrifice fly to give Colorado a 2-0 lead.

Beck led off the fourth inning with a single and Bernabel followed with a double. Beck scored on a throwing error by left fielder Michael Conforto but Bernabel was tagged out trying to advance to third.

Moniak and Doyle singled before Moniak scored on Arcia's liner off of Ohtani's leg, Doyle was thrown out trying to score on a grounder and Arcia scored on Freeman's single.

Ohtani (0-1) allowed five runs on nine hits, both season highs, and struck out three over four innings.

Gordon (4-5) fanned just three and scattered four hits. His only mistake was a one-out home run by Hernandez, his 21st, with one out in the sixth inning.

Goodman's RBI single in the bottom of the sixth restored Colorado's five-run lead, and Goodman added a two-run double in the eighth.

Rojas drove in a pair with a two-out double in the ninth.
