Washington was desperate not to let LA celebrate on their turf. And young Tommy Hanson 
sent a message early by nailing red-hot Kelly Johnson in the 1st. And then doing fist pump 
after getting a double play. Big Z came back though as he K'd the Nats 1-2-3 and jumped 
off the mound pumping his fist as series got an edge. 

Both starters cruised for 4 innings, until with 2 outs in the bottom of the 5th Torres 
got the Washington fans on their feet with a 2-run homer to give Nats a 2-0 lead. In the 
6th they added to it with another 2-run shot by Posade to make it 4-0 behind a dominating 
Hanson. But in 7th the young RH walked Bautista and hit Tulo to lead off inning. He then 
walked Ordonez to load bases, and McCann made him pay by doubling to center to plate 2 and 
cut the lead to 4-2. 

Robinson had seen enough and brought in his closer, Soriano, who gave up a sac fly to make 
it 4-3 WAS. After an error and walk loaded the bases again Soriano Kd Johnson to end the 
threat. In 8th L.A. threatened again with a walk and a single but Thornton Kd Ordonez and 
Castro to keep it 4-3 and in the 9th Guerrier worked around a leadoff single by Conrad 
to get Johnson on a groundout with tying run on 3rd to keep the Nats hopes alive. 
Dodgers lead the series 3-2 as they head back to L.A.
