The Dodgers completed their second full week without Matt Kemp, and continued to thrive despite the adversity of missing their superstar and three other starting position players. Just about everyone stepped up during the week on offense in one way or another, but the backstops brought the power.
Catchers A.J. Ellis and Matt Treanor each hit two home runs on the week, and if Jerry Hairston Jr.'s 7-for-9 performance after getting activated off the disabled list, the Dodgers will be in for quite a treat on Tuesday when Kemp returns.
The Dodgers won both of their series on the week, one in Arizona and one at home against Houston, the last time they faced the Astros as National League opponents. The Dodgers are now 9-4 without Kemp.
Dodger Batter of the Week: This was a close one, but Matt Treanor narrowly edges out A.J. Ellis and Jerry Hairston Jr. for the honor. Treanor homered in both of his starts, while Ellis hit a walk-off bomb on Saturday, and Hairston had his first career five-hit game on Sunday. Treanor and Ellis combined for four home runs on the week, while the rest of the team had two.
Dodger Pitcher of the Week: Chris Capuano continued his great start to the season, with two more starts and two more wins on the week, thanks to just two runs allowed.
