A look at whats happening all around the majors Thursday:---MUST-WIN GAMEIn the only Division Series to go the distance, Washington hosts the Los Angeles Dodgers in a deciding Game 5 at 8:08 p.m. EDT. The winner heads to Chicago for an NL Championship Series matchup with the Cubs. On the mound for the Nationals will be 20-game winner Max Scherzer. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts hadnt announced his starting pitcher, but it was expected to be lefty Rich Hill. I know (Clayton) Kershaw isnt pitching, Washington manager Dusty Baker said. Thank God.GETTING READYThe wild-card Blue Jays and AL Central champion Indians work out in Cleveland ahead of their AL Championship Series opener Friday night. Corey Kluber is scheduled to start Game 1 for Cleveland, followed by Trevor Bauer in Game 2 and Josh Tomlin in Game 3. Kluber tossed seven shutout innings of three-hit ball against the high-scoring Red Sox in his postseason debut last week. Hell face Blue Jays right-hander Marco Estrada, who yielded one run over 8 1/3 innings to beat Texas in Game 1 of their Division Series.STORY LINESNo matter which team the Cubs play in the NL Championship Series, there will be some interesting connections. Washington manager Dusty Baker held the same job in Chicago when the Cubs collapsed five outs shy of the 2003 World Series. Not to mention, like the Cubs, the Nationals would be trying to end a long drought -- the last team from the nations capital to win a pennant was the 1933 Washington Senators.And if the Cubs wind up facing Los Angeles, theres the relationship between Chicago manager Joe Maddon and Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman, his old boss with Tampa Bay.Theyre so balanced, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said after his team was eliminated by the Cubs. So whoever plays them has their work cut out.MAKING CHANGESAfter finishing at the bottom of the NL West in their sixth straight losing season, the San Diego Padres (68-94) are making changes near the top.

One day later, the Atlanta coach was just as quick to say hed do it again.Before answering questions at his weekly news conference on Monday, Quinn addressed his decision to call a running play on fourth and 1 from the Atlanta 45. Devonta Freeman was stopped behind the line by Chargers linebacker Denzel Perryman. Six plays later, Josh Lambo kicked a 42-yard field goal to give San Diego the 33-30 win .I lost sleep last night because of the outcome, Quinn said. I didnt lose sleep because of the decision to go for it, I can promise you that. We have one of the very best offenses in the NFL, and were going to ride that horse.Quinn said he learned a painful lesson in the Falcons 17-16 loss at San Francisco last season. Quinn decided to kick a field goal on a fourth-and-goal play from the 49ers 1 instead of leaving his offense on the field for a possible go-ahead touchdown.Quinn said if he had one do-over from last season, it would be going for the touchdown against the 49ers.It bothered me all that season and it bothered me in the offseason because I didnt send the message to the team that I believe, and I so do, Quinn said.Quinn vowed he would send a consistent aggressive message this season, even if that leads to his gambles being second-guessed.We still have a long way to go, he said. We have lots of work to do, but what I do know is were going to be an aggressive outfit, and one that attacks in all three phases.A breakdown in blocking allowed Perryman to shoot through the line and drop Freeman.We had a missed asssignment where we didnt get the job done, Quinn said, adding Freeman did not have a chance to really get going.ddddddddddddLeft tackle Jake Matthews said Monday its on me.I did get a little tripped up, Matthews said. I think I could have had better footwork. It was my fault. Ive got to get it fixed.The Falcons (4-3) have lost two straight entering Sundays home game against Green Bay.The offensive line drew six penalties -- four false starts and two holding calls. Back-to-back false-start penalties were called on right tackle Ryan Schraeder and left guard Andy Levitre on Atlantas final possession of regulation.To have that many fouls, that will set you back as much as anything, Quinn said.The penalty on Levitre set up a first-and-20 pass from Matt Ryan that was intercepted by Perryman, leading to Lambos tying field goal.After looking at it, it was just little things, missed communications or little lapses, Matthews said. Weve just got to get it fixed. Theres really no excuse for it.Game notesQuinn said it was too early to diagnose the severity of RB Tevin Colemans strained hamstring. Coleman left the game in the third quarter and did not return. He was seen flexing his left leg on the sideline. If Coleman cant play this week, Quinn said Terron Ward likely would be signed from the practice squad. ... The Falcons had four sacks against the Chargers, including two from Vic Beasley Jr. One of Beasleys sacks forced a fumble recovered by Adrian Clayborn for a touchdown.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
