LOS ANGELES -- Police say the home of Los Angeles Dodgers outfielderYasiel Puig was burglarized while his team was losing the final game of the World Series.

Police say officers answered a burglary alarm at the Encino, California, home Wednesday evening and found a smashed window. Several items were missing; there's no word on the value of the items.

Puig was at Dodger Stadium, where the team lost Game 7 to Houston 5-1.

A neighbor, Zach Eliass, told KABC-TV that Puig's two German shepherds got out of an open gate. Eliass took them in until Puig returned home and calmly thanked him.

Puig bought the home about a month ago.

Earlier this year, burglars hit Puig's Sherman Oaks, California, home and stole about $170,000 in jewelry and other items while he was at spring training in Arizona.
