Teoscar Hernandez and Andy Pages homered, and the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers rallied past the Washington Nationals 6-5 on Wednesday to salvage the finale of the three-game series.

Hernandez had two hits and drove in three runs for Los Angeles, while Shohei Ohtani and Tommy Edman each had two hits.

With Los Angeles trailing 5-4, Pages homered off Eduardo Salazar (0-1) with one out in the seventh to tie it 5-5. Ohtani then reached on an infield single, stole second and went to third on a ground out. After Edman walked, Hernandez lined a single to right that scored Ohtani to make it 6-5.

Kirby Yates (1-0) pitched a scoreless sixth inning for the win. Blake Treinen worked the ninth for his second save, getting CJ Abrams to ground into a force with one out and runners on first and second, and then retiring James Wood on a ground out.

Abrams homered for Washington, which had won four straight after losing six of seven

Washington starter Jake Irvin rebounded after a brutal first inning and completed six, allowing four runs on four hits and three walks while striking out seven.

Landon Knack, called up from Triple-A to make the start for the Dodgers, was touched for five runs on four hits and four walks in 2 1/3 innings. He struck out three.

The Dodgers jumped on Irvin early. After Ohtani singled and Mookie Betts walked to start the first, Edman tripled down the right-field line to make it 2-0. Hernandez followed with a home run to center and the lead was 4-0.
Abrams led off the bottom of the first with a homer to right against Knack. Wood walked, Keibert Ruiz singled and Nathaniel Lowe walked to load the bases, and the Nationals got runs on Josh Bell’s ground out and Luis Garcia, Jr.’s sacrifice fly to pull within 4-3.

In the Washington third, Lowe drew a one-out walk and Bell singled. Garcia doubled home Lowe and Bell scored the go-ahead run on an Alex Call sacrifice fly.
