But he\u2019s been fantastic in June. The two-time All-Star entered Friday\u2019s matchup slashing a scorching .328\/.459\/.642 in 22 games this month. After his second inning fireworks against the Royals, he has 7 home runs, 22 RBI and 20 runs scored in June.<\/p>\n<p>That production would put him on a 162-game pace for 45 homers, 150 RBI and 142 runs scored. And the Dodgers have Muncy batting eighth in the lineup on Friday \u2013 a testament to the ridiculous collection of talent in LA.<\/p>\n<p>And speaking of ridiculous talent,\u00a0Shohei Ohtani started off the game with a leadoff home run. Ohtani passed Aaron Judge with his National League-leading 29th dinger of the season. He also hit his seventh triple of the year, picked up two more RBI and scored two runs. And it\u2019s only the sixth inning.<\/p>\n<p>The Dodgers entered the Royals series having won 10 of their last 12 games and four straight. The hot streak allowed LA to retake control of the NL West after the San Francisco Giants tied the Dodgers for first place on June 13. Los Angeles now has a six game lead in the division.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"author_bio\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Los Angeles Dodgers\u00a0kept their winning streak going against the Colorado Rockies.
