Dodgers rally from 3 runs down to top Nationals 4-3

Although Cody Bellinger’s fierce line drive drove in the tying run, it hit the center field wall so quickly that the throw back to the infield beat him to second base.

No problem: chinese made nfl jerseys Bellinger adroitly avoided the tag with a swim move he learned from watching Mike Trout on television, and the Dodgers kept charging toward the latest win in their comeback surge.

Bellinger followed Yasmani Grandal’s two-run double with an RBI double in the sixth, and Corey Seager drove in Austin Barnes with the go-ahead run in the seventh inning of Los Angeles’ sixth win in seven games, 4-3 over the Washington Nationals on Sunday night.

With smart plays by Bellinger, Barnes and almost everybody else, the Dodgers (10-10) got back to .500 after a rough start for the defending NL champions. They were largely dominated by Jeremy Hellickson until they erased a three-run deficit in the sixth with three big hits from their patchwork lineup.

”There were signs of that old ballclub when we were coming from behind,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. ”That was good to see.”

Kenley Jansen pitched the ninth for his first save since April 10 and his third of the season – but not without drama. The Dodgers’ vaunted closer began the ninth by yielding two singles, but then struck out Andrew Stevenson and Trea Turner before ending it on Howie Kendrick’s fly to the warning track.

Michael Taylor homered, doubled, singled and walked for the Nationals, who have lost seven of 11.264

Hellickson retired 14 straight Dodgers before doubles by Chris Taylor and Grandal, with a walk by Seager sandwiched between them. Bellinger followed with his go-ahead line drive against Sammy Solis.

”The one that Taylor got was probably just a tad up,” Hellickson said. ”(The pitch to) Grandal was down.cheap nfl jerseys china paypal Probably the only at-bat I’d like to have back is that one to Seager.”

Michael Taylor put his first homer of the season into the home bullpen beyond left field in the fourth. He then doubled, advanced on Wood’s pickoff throw into center field and scored on Moises Sierra’s mid-length fly in the sixth for a 3-0 lead.
