The Dodgers traded Yasiel Puig to the Reds in the off-season. On Monday night he returned to Dodger Stadium with his new team and wasted no time exacting a little revenge.
Puig hit a two-run home run off of Clayton Kershaw in his first at-bat in the top of the first inning.

Puig finished the game 2-for-4 with two RBIs. Not a bad return to Los Angeles.
The Dodgers would, however, get the last laugh and a 4-3 win. Even though his team lost, returning with a bomb against his former team had to have left Puig feeling pretty good.
