Manny Machado wasted no time making an impact in a Los Angeles Dodgers uniform.
The All-Star shortstop, who was acquired by the Dodgers from the Baltimore Orioles for five prospects on Wednesday, got on base four times on Friday night to help lead his new team to a 6-4 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers.
Hitting out of the No. 2 hole, Machado finished his evening 2-for-3 with a pair of singles, two walks, and a run scored.

"It was beyond great," Machado said of his first game with Los Angeles, according to Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register. "That blue looked good on me."
The 26-year-old is now hitting .318/.392/.576 this season.
