Players of the Day for Sunday, October 6, 2019
National League
LA Dodgers 10 Washington Nationals 4
Taking a two games to one lead in their divisional series, the LA Dodgers let their bats do the talking in game three, banging out 14 hits against six beleaguered Nationals' hurlers.
On a team loaded with youthful stars, it was 36-year-old Russell Martin who did much of the damage for the Dodgers. Going 2-for-4 with four RBI, Martin doubled in a pair of runs and came around to score in the sixth inning, putting the Dodgers up 3-2, and it was off to the races after that. LA scored seven runs in the frame.
Martin finished off the Nationals with a two-run homer in the top of the ninth. Max Muncy and Justin Turner also homered for the Dodgers.
Game four is Monday, 6:40 pm ET.
Atlanta Braves 3 St. Louis Cardinals 1
Adam Wainwright tossed 7 2/3 scoreless innings and Andrew Miller got the Cardinals out of a bases loaded jam in the eighth inning, but the Braves scored three runs in the top of the ninth off closer Carlos Martinez, erasing St. Louis' 1-0 lead.
Adam Duval had the key hit, singling home two runs after the Braves had tied the score.
Atlanta takes a 2-1 lead in the series, which resumes Monday at 3:07 pm ET.
American League
There were no American League games on Sunday. Minnesota hosts the Yankees, and Tampa Bay hosts Houston on Monday. New York leads their series two games to one, as does Houston. Game three in Tampa starts at 1:07 pm ET; the Yankees and Twins take the field in Minnesota at 8:40 pm ET
