After two close ball games, the series between the Nats and Braves is tied at a game apiece. These are the two best offenses in the league, but pitching has ruled the day in this series. To close out this weather impacted series, the two teams will call on a pair of crafty lefties.
With a lefty on the mound, Blake Butera will make some changes. Andres Chaparro and Curtis Mead will both be back in the lineup. Jacob Young will also return to center field. That will move Dylan Crews to right field, James Wood to left and Daylen Lile to DH. After a pair of bumpy starts, Foster Griffin will look to get back on track.
The Braves are also making some changes with a lefty on the mound. Eli White and Ha-Seong Kim will be back in the lineup. Mauricio Dubon will move back to left and Ronald Acuna Jr. will be the DH. Veteran Sandy Leon will be back in the lineup behind the plate. Martin Perez has been an underrated arm for the Braves this year and he will take the ball today.

The offense has not been great with RISP lately, so hopefully that changes. Follow along in the comments down below and let’s go Nats!
