Justin Turner is one of the biggest success stories in the history of the Dodgers, and he continues to produce as the stage gets larger. The third baseman will try for more success and a 2-0 series lead over the Nationals in Game 2 of the NLDS on Saturday afternoon in Washington D.C.
Turner hit a two-run home run in the third inning and later singled in the Dodgers’ 4-3 victory on Friday in Game 1. Not only were the runs needed by the Dodgers, but they came after a brief scare in the first inning when Turner was hit by a pitch on his left hand, a slider from Max Scherzer.
