In four games against the bitter rivals, Betts is averaging 17.3 DKFP with three doubles, the triple, one homer, eight RBI and six runs scored.
A.J. Pollack homered again against the Dodgers Tuesday night. That makes seven in 11 games this season against Los Angeles, which the Diamondbacks have owned.
