Overview
- Nationals hit five of the game’s eight homers—Nathaniel Lowe delivered two, including his 100th career blast—to power a 7-3 win at Dodger Stadium.
- None of Los Angeles’s three runs went beyond solo shots from Andy Pages, Will Smith and Teoscar Hernández despite Chavez Ravine’s home run-friendly conditions.
- Dodgers starter Dustin May yielded three long balls in six innings, marking a key struggle for a rotation thinned by injuries.
- Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman combined to go 1-for-12 with six strikeouts, extending each star’s offensive slump.
- With Tyler Glasnow and Tony Gonsolin sidelined, the Dodgers will rely on Ohtani in Sunday’s start to shore up their rotation.
