LOS ANGELES—Max Scherzer felt his hamstring tighten up during warmups. He still went out and dominated the Atlanta Braves for six innings.

Justin Turner and AJ Pollock singled home the tying and go-ahead runs through the same infield hole in the eighth, and the Los Angeles Dodgers rallied for a 4-3 win on Sept. 1 to complete a three-game sweep.
