BASEBALL

Major League The Los Angeles Dodgers have won the Manny Machado sweepstake­s, getting the prized MLB AllStar shortstop from the Baltimore Orioles in a trade. The Dodgers get a four-time American League AllStar with two Gold Gloves who has 129 homers over the past three.

Machado was drafted third overall by the Orioles in 2010, made his big league debut in 2012 and spent his entire major league career in Baltimore. In yesterday's trade, the Orioles received five prospects: outfielder Yusniel Diaz, right-handers Dean Kremer and Zach Pop, and third basemen Rylan Bannon and Breyvic Valera. Machado, a 26-year-old power hitter with extraordin­ary fielding skills, greatly improves the Dodgers' chances of reaching the World Series for a second consecutiv­e year.

He led Baltimore in batting average (.315), home runs (24) and RBIs (65).

Machado will be introduced in Milwaukee today.
