Dodgers' Justin Turner: Plates two in Friday loss
Turner went 2-for-3 with a double, two RBI and a run in Friday's 8-6 loss to the Pirates.
Analysis:
The veteran third baseman plated Corey Seager with a double in the third and subsequently scored on a balk by Jameson Taillon. He then brought Scott Van Slyke home on a sacrifice fly in the sixth, marking his fifth multi-RBI game of June. The performance was a nice rebound for Turner, who'd gone 0-for-8 over the prior two games. He's enjoyed a nice power surge during June, a month that's seen him blast seven home runs overall.
