After losing their first two games against the Cardinals, the Dodgers came back with a thrilling walk-off victory to avoid the sweep at home on Thursday. Teoscar Hernandez sent the crowd home happy, hitting a go-ahead two-run double in the bottom of the ninth off Riley O’Brien to win 3-2. The Dodgers’ only other run came in the fifth inning on a wild pitch. The Dodgers won despite only having six hits. The Cardinals had 12 hits and scored in the first and third innings, but they couldn’t score the rest of the game. Tarik Skubal didn’t pitch poorly, but it looked like he was going to be on the hook for the loss, giving up two runs off 10 hits in 5.2 innings. But the Dodgers’ bullpen held strong, only giving up two more hits to keep LA in it long enough for the Hernandez heroics.

The Nationals won Game 1 against Atlanta 9-5, but Game 2 didn’t go their way at all, dropping 9-0 to split the series. The Braves’ pitching dominated in the finale, only giving up two hits across five pitchers. Ronald Acuna Jr. hit a three-run homer to become the fastest player in MLB history to hit 200 homers and steal 200 bases at 28 years old. Catcher Sean Murphy also hit a three-run homer in this game that was never really close. James Wood and Yohandy Morales were the only Nationals to collect a hit. The Braves won the season series, 9-4 in the process.
