ANALYSIS/OPINION:
The Washington Nationals were slowly sinking into their offseason early in Game 2 of their National League Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers Sunday before a sold-out crowd at Nationals Park
And they were doing it artistically — nearly a replica of Friday’s game one 4-3 loss to the Dodgers in game one — another solo home run by Corey Seager, just the second batter of the game, to give Los Angeles a 1-0 lead.
In the bottom of the inning, just like Clayton Kershaw, the Game 1 starter for the Dodgers, Game 2 starter Rich Hill struck out the side.
