TORONTO -- Michael A. Taylor sparked a scuffling Nationals offense Sunday afternoon at Rogers Centre, collecting hits in his first three at-bats and wreaking havoc on the basepaths.
Taylor began the game 3-for-3 and swiped a career-high four stolen bases to take the MLB lead with 21 on the season. His four stolen bases also tied a Nationals record for the most stolen bases in a single game, matching his teammate Trea Turner's accomplishment, which happened against the Cubs on June 27, 2017.
Taylor's speed helped him score two runs and ignited a game-tying fifth inning for Washington .
