Nats get a little postseason payback

In his second game back from his three-game suspension, Bryce Harper smacked an RBI single in the fifth off Dodgers starter Hyun-Jin Ryu, who retired five straight to begin the game but went on to give up four runs on seven hits. The lefty went seven innings for the first time since returning from 2015 shoulder surgery.
