Washington added three more points in the bottom of the fourth inning, making the game decided in the beginning. In the fourth inning, Cruz's right-handed hit, stolen base, and Young's right-handed hit provided an opportunity for the first and third bases with no outs. After adding one point with Cole's sacrifice fly, Wood's two-run homer to the middle wall widened the gap to 8-0.

Wood hit a curve that dropped into the middle of Roblesky's first pitch and sailed well over the middle fence. Wood had three hits, five RBIs and two runs in four at-bats, including two home runs.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts did not replace Roblesky even though he was hit by the first two hitters in the fourth inning after losing a lot of runs in the first and second innings. The impression was that he gave up the game.
