Smoak Delivers Walk-Off Win for Dodgers
Los Angeles beat Washington at Dodger Stadium, eking out a 8-7 win. The win was due in large part to catcher Evan Gattis, who earned player of the game honors. Cody Allen picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 1-1. Joakim Soria was tagged with the loss. Losses have been few and far between for the Nationals so far this season. Their record drops to 13-6.

Justin Smoak was the walk-off hero for Los Angeles. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Dodgers first baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"We'll savor this win," Smoak told the Los Angeles Chronicle, "then get ready for the next game."
