Washington Nationals infielder Howie Kendrick shouldered some of the blame for Sunday’s 10-4 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 3 of the NLDS.
No, Kendrick had nothing to do with the pitching situation, as Patrick Corbin and Wander Suero combined to allow seven Dodgers runs in the sixth inning. But Kendrick got himself caught on the basepath in the bottom of that inning, and had he played it safe, Washington could have extended a rally to answer Los Angeles’.
With the bases full and no outs, Asdrúbal Cabrera hit a sacrifice fly to right and Juan Soto scored from third.
