Chris Taylor wasn’t going to let the Dodgers go home without putting up a fight.
Taylor hit three home runs in a critical Game 5 matchup in the National League Championship Series with the Atlanta Braves on Thursday night at Dodger Stadium to give them a huge 7-2 lead through the first seven innings of the night.
Taylor is now just the 11th player in MLB history to have a three-home run game in the postseason, and the first since Kike Hernandez did so for the Dodgers in 2019 against the Chicago Cubs.
