Game 1: Braves 3, Nationals 0
Greg Maddux scattered four hits over eight scoreless innings and Marquis Grissom provided all of the necessary support with a two-out, two-run homer off Max Scherzer in the third. Lopez began the third with a double against Scherzer, who allowed two runs on four hits over seven innings. Howie Kendrick’s two-out double in the fourth was the only extra-base hit allowed by Maddux.

Game 2: Braves 4, Nationals 2
Lopez’s first multi-homer performance of this series began with a sixth-inning solo shot off Stephen Strasburg. It was capped by a go-ahead, two-run homer in the ninth against Sean Doolittle. Ryan Klesko’s second-inning homer provided an early lead for Tom Glavine, who allowed two runs over six innings.

Game 3: Braves 6, Nationals 3
John Smoltz tossed five scoreless innings and Luis Polonia fueled a decisive two-run sixth with an RBI single. Fred McGriff homered off Patrick Corbin in the fourth and Lopez highlighted his three-hit game with a solo homer off Joe Ross in the seventh. Corbin allowed two runs and recorded seven strikeouts over 4 2/3 innings.

Game 4: Nationals 4, Braves 1
Aníbal Sánchez allowed one run over 6 2/3 innings and benefited from an early lead he gained when Trea Turner singled and scored on Kendrick’s single in the first. Juan Soto’s sixth-inning solo shot further damaged Steve Avery, who allowed two runs over six innings.

Game 5: Nationals 3, Braves 2
Maddux was doomed by a wild pitch that allowed Soto to score what proved to be the game-winning run in the sixth. Soto singled and raced to third on a Kendrick single, before taking advantage of a rare Maddux wild pitch. Scherzer exited after allowing a pair of runs in the bottom of the sixth. But the Braves tallied only one hit against Washington’s bullpen.

Game 6: Braves 7, Nationals 5
McGriff, David Justice and Lopez each homered off Strasburg during a four-run fourth inning. Lopez capped his second multi-homer game of the series with a three-run shot off Wander Suero in the eighth. The Braves catcher’s second home run proved to be significant after the Nationals tallied three runs in the ninth. Glavine limited the Nationals to two runs over six innings. Strasburg faced one more than the minimum through the first three innings, and he did not allow a hit before allowing three homers in a span of four plate appearances in the fourth.
