The Dodgers had a 10th defender on Sunday against the Giants.
Kaitlin, a ball girl for Los Angeles, accidentally fielded a Yermin Mercedes ground ball she originally believed was foul during the second inning of Sunday’s game.
As the ball passed the Dodgers’ Max Muncy on the third base foul line, the ball girl positioned herself, fielded the ball, and effectively gave Mercedes a ground rule double.

The ball girl was later told Mercedes’ hit was a fair ball, which gave Kaitlin a moment of confusion
