Dodgers' Max Muncy: Emerging from season-long slump
Muncy went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 8-3 win against San Diego.

The homer was his second in four games and extended his on-base streak to eight contests. Over that stretch, Muncy is slashing .276/.353/.552 -- a considerable uptick from his .170/.313/.329 line on the season.
