Matt Kemp and the Dodgers put together their second-best offensive week of the season (narrowly behind Week 4), and won two series against the Rockies and Reds. Their run differential of +14 was their best week of the season. However, the rest of the division didn't cooperate, as the Dodgers ended their week just as they started it, five and a half games out of first place in the NL West.
Dodger Batter of the Week: Matt Kemp had a heck of a week, hitting .409/.500/.955 with four home runs, 13 RBI, six runs scored, and five walks. Kemp hit a game-tying grand slam against the Reds on Saturday, one of two home runs on the day for Kemp on a day that he set a career high with six RBI. On the season, Kemp's 48 RBI are two behind Adrian Gonzalez of Boston for the major league lead.
Honorable mention goes to Chad Billingsley, who was 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, a walk, 3 RBI, and two runs scored in his two games this week. It was a heck of a week at the plate for Dodgers with the middle name of Ryan, as Matthew Ryan Kemp and Chad Ryan Billingsley both wreaked havoc with a bat in their hands.
Dodger Pitcher of the Week: Ted Lilly quieted the Rockies on Tuesday over seven innings, allowing just two runs while striking out eight. The pitching staff on the whole had a solid week, especially the bullpen, which posted a 2.08 ERA and 2.67 FIP in 17 1/3 innings.
Week 10 Record: 4-2
36 runs scored (6.00 per game)
