Utley went 6-for-7 and scored twice in Wednesday's 14-inning loss to the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
The six hits were a career high for the 14th-year veteran. Utley also became the first Dodger with that many hits since Shawn Green did it in 2002. He entered the game on a 3-for-16 skid, but broke out of that on a day that included a pair of doubles -- the first time Utley has notched two doubles in a single game since August of last year. Wednesday's effort raised his average 15 points to .270, its highest mark since June 3.
