LOS ANGELES — Mookie Betts is back in the Los Angeles Dodgers' lineup after missing two games with a sore right ankle. The All-Star is set to start in right field and bat his usual leadoff position Tuesday night against the Oakland Athletics. Betts sat out weekend games against the Cincinnati Reds after getting hurt in the batter's box while trying to avoid a pitch. He is batting .356 with eight homers, 21 RBIs, 24 runs scored and 24 walks in his last 24 games.
