It took something the Dodgers hadn’t done in 19 days to get Alex Wood his first win of the season, completing a weekend sweep of the Nationals with a 7-2 win on Sunday in Washington D.C., the fourth consecutive victory for Los Angeles.
Kiké Hernandez and Yasiel Puig each hit home runs with a runner on base, something the Dodgers hadn’t done even once in their last 16 games.
Yasmani Grandal homered in the second inning for the first run of the game, and the 17th consecutive solo home run by the Dodgers.
