Comes up clutch Bellinger went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Friday's 5-1 win over the Giants.

Impact Bellinger delivered the biggest hit of the game, an eighth-inning grand slam to give the Dodgers the lead for good. This was his first homer since July 1, and he's batting a meager .204 (11-for-54) this month. The outfielder owns a .208/.270/.381 slash line with 12 long balls, 35 RBI, 45 runs scored and 11 stolen bases through 86 contests. Despite the poor ratios, the 27-year-old should continue to see mostly steady playing time in center field.

Retreats to bench versus lefty Bellinger is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

Impact Trayce Thompson will pick up the start in center field in place of the lefty-hitting Bellinger, whose absence from the lineup coincides with the Cubs bringing a southpaw (Drew Smyly) to the hill. Bellinger started in each of the Dodgers' last six games and went 5-for-22 with a double, five runs and two stolen bases.

Records 11th steal Bellinger went 0-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's 4-3 extra-inning win over the Cubs.

Impact Bellinger reached on a fielder's choice and stole second in the ninth inning. This was his second steal in the last three games, and he's now 11-for-12 in stolen base attempts this season. He's still been a spotty hitter in July, going 5-for-26 (.192) in his last eight contests. The outfielder is slashing .208/.265/.387 with 11 home runs, 31 RBI, 39 runs scored, 14 doubles and two triples through 309 plate appearances.

Tallies three hits in win Bellinger went 3-for-4 with two runs and a stolen base Wednesday in a 2-1 victory against Colorado.

Impact Bellinger committed an error in the sixth inning that allowed Colorado's only run to score, but the outfielder made up for that miscue with a big offensive performance. He racked up three of the Dodgers' nine hits and scored both of the team's runs, including the walk-off run after leading off the ninth inning with a single. Bellinger also swiped his 10th bag of the campaign in the fifth inning, giving him double-digit thefts for the first time since his MVP 2019 campaign. His .213/.272/.397 season slash line isn't particularly exciting, but Bellinger is one of only 12 major-leaguers with at least 10 homers and 10 steals so far in 2022.
