Andy Pages slugged a three-run homer among his three hits, Freddie Freeman doubled twice and drove in four runs, and the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Washington Nationals 10-5 on Saturday.
Will Smith also had three hits and Shohei Ohtani, Kyle Tucker and Alex Call each had two of the Dodgers' 16 hits. Pages leads the majors in hits while batting .500 (15-for-30).
Los Angeles star shortstop Mookie Betts exited in the middle of the first inning of the game due to right lower back pain and was replaced by Miguel Rojas.
Tyler Glasnow (1-0) threw 101 pitches over six innings, giving up two runs on four hits with nine strikeouts and two walks.
CJ Abrams hit a two-run homer and Luis Garcia Jr. went 3-for-4 with an RBI for Washington, which lost its fourth straight and has been outscored 23-11 in the first two games of the weekend series.
The Dodgers put two runs on the board in the first inning. With two on and one out, Freeman delivered a two-run double against Jake Irvin (1-1).
Irvin ran into trouble again in the second inning, allowing three runs on three hits. Los Angeles loaded the bases with one out before Alex Freeland scored on Rojas' sacrifice fly. Freeman followed with a two-run double to right field.
The Dodgers extended their lead to 6-0 in the third when Pages singled, stole second and scored on Call's two-out single.
Washington pushed a run across with two outs in the third on Garcia's RBI triple into the right-field corner.
Irvin was replaced by Brad Lord after giving up six runs on eight hits over four innings. He walked two and struck out four.
Will Smith and Max Muncy greeted Lord with back-to-back singles to begin the fifth inning, and Pages drove them home with a three-run homer. The 387-foot shot was Pages' second in as many games and third of the season.
After Los Angeles tacked on another run in the seventh on Tucker's two-out single, Abrams hit a two-run homer off Ben Casparius in the eighth. Washington added a run in the ninth on Jose Tena's pinch-hit RBI single.
