Nathaniel Lowe hit two home runs, James Wood and Luis Garcia Jr. hit back-to-back long balls in the fourth inning and the visiting Washington Nationals turned five total homers into a 7-3 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday.

CJ Abrams added a home run for the second consecutive night as the Nationals won for just the second time in their last 14 games. Right-hander Jake Irvin (6-3) gave up two runs on six hits in 5 1/3 innings, with no walks and seven strikeouts.

Andy Pages, Will Smith and Teoscar Hernandez hit home runs for the Dodgers, who lost for the second time in eight games and dropped to 2-3 against the Nationals this season. Right-hander Dustin May (4-5) gave up three home runs, all solo shots, in six innings for Los Angeles.

The Nationals had just one hit when Wood opened the fourth inning with a 451-foot home run to center field. It was his team-leading 21st homer of the season and his fourth in five games against the Dodgers. One pitch later, Garcia hit a home run to center, his seventh.

The Dodgers had just two hits off Irvin into the fifth inning when Pages led off with a home run, extending his career-high total to 16.

Lowe went deep against May to lead off the sixth for a 3-1 lead, the 100th of his career, before Smith responded for the Dodgers in the bottom of the sixth with a home run to center, his ninth.

Irvin departed after he struck out Teoscar Hernandez following Smith’s home run. It was his second solid start at Los Angeles in two seasons after he held the Dodgers to six scoreless innings at Dodger Stadium last April.

Abrams’ two-run home run in the seventh put Washington up 5-2. Lowe finished off his first multi-homer game of the season in a two-run eighth.

Hernandez hit his 14th home run of the season for Los Angeles just inside the right-field foul pole in the ninth inning.

Behind the Wisconsin v. Miami tampering lawsuit over transfer DB Xavier Lucas that was months in the making

The legal enforceability of a revenue share agreement between a football player and institution is at the crux of a landmark legal case between two Power Four schools that could have wide-ranging implications. The University of Wisconsin sued the University of Miami on Friday over alleged tampering and tortious interference of a two-year agreement with defensive back Xavier Lucas, a member of the Badgers' 2024 team. Lucas is not mentioned by name in the lawsuit -- only referred to as Student-Athlete A -- but all of the details line up after he left Wisconsin in January to join Miami's football program as the No. 1 cornerback in the transfer portal.  Wisconsin alleges that Miami intentionally interfered and tampered with Lucas' deal with the Badgers not long after he received a substantial payment following the deal's execution. "Miami's interference caused Student-Athlete A […]

England’s Harry Brook and his uneasy relationship with India

Perhaps it should not have come as too much of a surprise to see Mohammed Siraj aiming a verbal barrage at Harry Brook during his helter-skelter performance on his home ground.The dark art of sledging — usually bowlers letting batters know exactly what they think of them— is less common than it once was in these days of cricketers from opposing countries becoming more and more familiar with each other in franchise competitions.AdvertisementBut England’s white-ball captain is something of a rarity in having an uneasy relationship with the most powerful country in cricket, which was evident in Siraj’s outburst and India’s joyous celebrations when they dismissed him one run short of a century in the first Test.This was an eventful first Test innings against India for England’s gifted 26-year-old. There were spectacular shots in front of an appreciative Headingley audience […]
