Washington looked to even the series off former Nat Willis (he of 7.71 reg season ERA),
and looked forward to treating him to rude homecoming. LA went 1-2-3, but the Nats put 2
on but Willis got Posada to tap it back to him to get through 1st. In 2nd, Kelly Johnson
started it off again with yet another HR off a LH to give LA a 1-0 lead. Young de la Rosa
then lost his cool and walked 3 straight and Dodgers and Denorfia singled in 2 with 2 outs
and a 3-0 LA lead.
In the 4th de la Rosa continued to struggle as Ordonez slammed an homer, and he completely
lost it tossing 2 wp and a 3-run HR to Dunn. LA left the inning up 7-0 after 3 innings.
Meanwhile, Willis was cruising against his former team to the amazement of everyone. Stranding
6 runners through first 3 IP but then tossed a 1-2-3 in 4th and 6th inning. The Nats did
manage a run in the 5th off a Posey homer but down 7-1 it did not cheer fans too much.
LA then struck 4 times in 6th and 8th innings with 4 solo homers off Motte (who took one for
the team) to make it 11-1. Which is what the final score was as Willis and relievers combined
for a 5-hitter and a 3-1 LA series lead.
Note: Willis is a free agent in the off-season. This should help him.
