Mookie Betts hits a three-run homer, and Kyle Tucker robs a homer in the Dodgers' 7-5 win over the Nationals
Video Transcript
To begin the top of the fourth inning, it's one-nothing Los Angeles.
CJ will span five of his nine at bats in the series.
Oh, this one's hammered out to right center- Whoo and way out of here.
CJ loves hitting at Dodger Stadium, and he gets to 30 home runs on the season, tying this game here in the fourth.
And this ball's hammered, and we got it.
Number 30.
He's just been a thorn in the side of the Dodgers whenever the Nationals play LA.
We got ourselves a ballgame.
40 comeback wins already this year, working on their 41st.
Ground ball, shortstop.
Picked by Nez.
Throw is gone away.
He's safe, and we're tied.
And it's a new ballgame.
A chance for Mookie Betts now with two down.
He's hit well against the Nationals this year, to keep saying.
Betts sends one high to left.
Bleier back on it.
Near the wall.
He has it.
It was going off the top of the left field wall.
He hung with it, leaped at the right time, and made the catch to end the Dodgers threat.
We go to the seventh inning.
Last night, the Dodgers three for eight with runners in scoring position.
Today, three for 10.
Dodgers still trailing the Nationals five to four.
Fly to the opposite field.
Tucker running back.
He's at the wall.
He leaps, and Kyle Tucker takes one away.
Absolute highway robbery from Kyle Tucker.
What a play by Tucker.
Especially in a one-run ballgame.
And time for Mookie Betts to get something done.
As hot as Mookie's been, and especially in key situations, he is so due right here.
And Betts blasts the ball in the air.
Marcus Stroman Betts for 30.
Gone!
You said he was due, and he gives the Dodgers the lead.
On a rainy night, he's so due he's wet.
Comeback victory number 41.
