Max Muncy hits a go-ahead, three-run home run against the Milwaukee Brewers, setting a new record for most career home runs at Dodger Stadium. He reaches the milestone on a pinch-hit at-bat, delivering the key swing in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Both outlets describe Muncy as not in the Dodgers’ starting lineup for the game. He is substituted into the batting order and drives a homer off Brewers right-handed relief pitcher Antonio Senzatela, giving Los Angeles the lead at the time.
After the homer, the New York Post notes that the Dodgers still lose the game, while Yahoo Sports focuses on the historic nature of the record itself. The accounts align on the setting, opponent, timing of the at-bat, and the opponent’s pitcher involved, while differing mainly in how much attention they place on the game’s outcome versus the milestone.
