Tommy Edman and Teoscar Hernández Lead Dodgers Past Nationals 6-5 in Shohei Ohtani’s Absence

Tommy Edman’s three-run homer sparked a 6-5 comeback as the Dodgers won their 10th one-run game in 16 and Shohei Ohtani remained uncertain.

  • On Saturday night, Tommy Edman hit a three-run home run in the seventh inning, lifting the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 6-5 victory over the Washington Nationals.
  • Tyler Glasnow labored through six innings allowing four runs, while Washington Nationals pitcher Cade Cavalli retired 16 of 17 batters following an early Dodgers rally.
  • Edman, 0 for 7 since Thursday, capitalized on a hanging slider from Clayton Beeter in the seventh; Tanner Scott later stranded the tying and go-ahead runs in the ninth.
  • Shohei Ohtani remains uncertain to play in Sunday's series finale against Washington, with the Dodgers evaluating a potential move to the injured list for the designated hitter.
  • The victory marked the Dodgers' 10th one-run game in their past 16 outings, while the Nationals lost their third consecutive game despite RBI doubles from Dylan Crews and Daylen Lile.
