Hernandez went 3-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Thursday's 6-4 win against the Giants.
ANALYSISHernandez opened the scoring in the contest with a second-inning RBI single and added a run-scoring double in the fourth. The utility man has hit safely in four of his past six games and is slashing .318/.318/.545 with a home run, four RBI and four runs over that span. With the Dodgers' infield decimated by injuries to
Mookie Betts (hand),
Max Muncy (oblique),
Miguel Rojas (forearm) and
Chris Taylor (groin), Hernandez has had an opportunity to play nearly every day. He's started at shortstop or third base in each of Los Angeles' past five contests.
