Washington scored three runs in the eighth against Milwaukee closer Josh Hader, coming back for a 4-3 win. They will face the Dodgers in the NLDS.

"This was a big win for the guys in the clubhouse, celebrating right now, for this organization," said Nationals manager Dave Martinez."We get to move on and go to L.A. He had struck out twice in his first three at-bats when he came up with the bases loaded and Hader on the mound. Trailing 3-1, the Nationals scratched and clawed their way back with a hit batter, a broken-bat single by pinch-hitter Ryan Zimmerman and a walk to Rendon to bring Soto to the plate with two outs.
Scherzer hadn’t pitched quite like an ace after returning from a back injury in late August, posting a 4.74 ERA in seven starts. However, his reputation as a big-game pitcher was one of the reasons Martinez chose him to start the winner-take-all game.
