Braves close to NLDS elimination after 13-6 loss

[...] the Braves lost 13-6 on Sunday night and trail 2-1 in the best-of-five National League division series. Jason Heyward's two-run homer in the ninth marked Atlanta's only runs after the third inning. Atlanta scored all five of its runs in the first two games with two-out hits, and got on a similar roll in the first inning Sunday. Carl Crawford hit a three-run homer and Juan Uribe added a two-run shot to highlight Los Angeles' high-powered offense. Hanley Ramirez and Yasiel Puig each had three hits and scored three times for the Dodgers, who matched a franchise record for runs in a postseason game. The NL West champions scored four runs in the second to take a 4-2 lead, highlighted by Crawford's three-run homer with two outs. Ryu allowed four runs and six hits in three innings, becoming the first South Korean-born pitcher to start a postseason game in the major leagues. Teheran became the youngest pitcher (22 years, 252 days) to make a postseason start for the Braves since Steve Avery (22 years, 193 days) in the 1992 World Series, according to STATS.
