ATLANTA — Chris Taylor hit three homers and drove in six runs to help the Los Angeles Dodgers beat Atlanta 11-2, cutting the Braves' lead in the NL Championship Series to 3-2.
The Dodgers have won seven straight postseason elimination games dating to last season.
They also trailed 0-2 and 1-3 against Atlanta in the NLCS last year before rallying to win three straight games at a neutral site in Arlington, Texas. Game 6 is Saturday in Atlanta, where the Braves get two more chances to clinch their first pennant in 22 years.
AJ Pollock homered twice for the Dodgers and had four RBIs. Freddie Freeman had a two-run homer for the Braves in the first inning.
