SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) Russ Ortiz pitched three scoreless innings, and Andre Ethier and Casey Blake homered as the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Kansas City Royals 6-4 on Thursday.
Ortiz, a veteran right-hander who is a non-roster invitee, gave up two singles, struck out three and walked none. He has worked five scoreless innings and yielded four hits in his bid to make the Dodgers' rotation.
Ethier hit a three-run homer in the third off Gil Meche, while Blake homered in the fifth off rookie left-hander Edgar Osuna.
Meche yielded four runs on seven hits in two-plus innings to take the loss.
Scott Podsednik had two hits, including a two-run homer in the third, and stole a base for the Royals.
