Washington Nationals Lineup: 8/29/2018
Here’s the Washington Nationals lineup for tonight’s series-finale in Philadelphia.
Adam Eaton – RF
Trea Turner – SS
Anthony Rendon – 3B
Juan Soto – LF
Ryan Zimmerman – 1B
Matt Wieters – C
Wilmer Difo – 2B
Michael A. Taylor – CF
Gio Gonzalez – P
The Nationals go for an all-important sweep of the second place Phillies tonight. Gio Gonzalez (7-11, 4.35 ERA) takes the mound for Washington. After two poor outings, Gonzalez was strong in his last start, allowing only one run in seven innings.
Jake Arrieta (9-9, 3.37 ERA) gets the ball for Philadelphia. Arrieta allowed four runs in six-plus innings in his last start.
If the Nats are going to make a run at the first place Braves, a series sweep against the second place Phillies would be a fantastic start.
