After dropping six in a row, the Dodgers entered today’s series finale against the Nationals amazingly looking for a sweep and riding a three-game winning streak. Well despite getting another tough matchup in Stephen Strasburg, the Dodgers extended their winning streak to four behind a parade of dingers in a 7-2 victory.

Alex Wood was forced to exit after just 82 pitches thanks to cramping, but he was efficient through six innings. A Trea Turner two-run shot in the 3rd accounting for the damage against him, but Wood didn’t allow much more than that, giving up just two other hits and one walk while striking out four.
