LOS ANGELES (AP) Mookie Betts homered twice and the Los Angeles Dodgers went deep four times in the eighth inning of an 8-2 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Friday night.

Max Muncy and Kyle Tucker connected back-to-back in the eighth. Betts and Max Muncy added two-out solo shots in a five-run inning as the NL West champions rolled in a series opener between old rivals.

Tyler Glasnow (5-1) allowed two runs and three hits in six innings with a season-high 10 strikeouts.

The home run barrage occurred on the 20th anniversary of the Dodgers' four-plus-one game. Jeff Kent, J.D. Drew, Russell Martin and Marlon Anderson hit four consecutive homers in the bottom of the ninth inning - the fourth time in major league history the feat had been accomplished.

Giants reliever Philip Abner gave up all five runs in the eighth, which began with the Dodgers leading 3-2. He became the second reliever in Giants history to give up four homers in one inning.

The Giants (64-90) lost their 90th game, their most since 2017 when they dropped 98.

Muncy’s shot traveled 420 feet and Tucker’s went 403 feet, both to right-center. Betts also homered leading off the game.

Josue De Paula, a 21-year-old Dodgers rookie finishing his first week in the major leagues, lined a two-out double to right field for the go-ahead run in the sixth. He also singled and scored the tying run on Teoscar Hernández’s RBI single in the fifth.

Edwin Díaz struck out two in a scoreless ninth in his return from the injured list.

The Giants tied the game at 1 on Jung Hoo Lee's leadoff homer in the second and went ahead 2-1 on Jonah Cox's RBI single with two outs in the third.

Giants starter Cesar Perdomo gave up two runs and six hits in 4 2/3 innings with one strikeout. Jason Foley (3-2) took the loss in relief.

Giants first baseman Bryce Eldridge was a late scratch with a head laceration.

The Giants had yet to announce a starter for Saturday against Dodgers LHP Tarik Skubal (10-7, 2.70 ERA).
