The Washington Nationals are 29-54 this season and have lost six games in a row. Washington lost Game 1 of this series by a score of 11-0 on Tuesday night. The Washington pitching staff has a 5.15 ERA, a 1.48 WHIP, and a .268 opponent batting average this season. The Nationals offense has scored 327 runs with a .250 batting average and a .319 on base percentage. Josh Bell is batting .315 with 12 home runs and 47 RBI’s for the Nationals this season. The projected starter for Washington is Josiah Gray, who is 6-5 with a 4.22 ERA and a 1.27 WHIP over 81 innings pitched this season.
The Philadelphia Phillies are 43-38 this season and have won four of their last five games. Prior to winning Game 1 of this series, Philadelphia won two out of three games against the Cardinals. The Philadelphia pitching staff has a 3.82 ERA, a 1.23 WHIP, and a .237 opponent batting average. The Phillies offense has scored 396 runs with a .249 batting average and a .318 on base percentage this year. Rhys Hoskins is batting .253 with 17 home runs and 42 RBI’s for the Phillies this season. The projected starter for Philadelphia is Aaron Nola, who is 5-5 with a 3.13 ERA and a 0.92 WHIP over 103.2 innings pitched this season.
Washington is 0-5 in their last 5 Wednesday games and 15-57 in their last 72 games against the NL East. The under is 9-4 in Washington’s last 13 games. Philadelphia is 22-9 in their last 31 games and 12-5 in their last 17 home games. The under is 4-1 in Philadelphia’s last 5 game two’s of a series. The over 12-2 in these two teams last 14 head to head meetings.
Philadelphia came out and absolutely dominated Washington in Game 1 of this series on Tuesday night. Washington will try to answer with Josiah Gray on the mound, who allowed six runs over 5.2 innings in his last outing. Philadelphia will go with Aaron Nola, who has allowed five runs over his last 14 innings of work. Washington has really struggled lately and I don’t see it turning around in this game. I like Philadelphia to win by two runs.
