The Nats are no strangers to rubber matches, and they find themselves in another one today. This time they will look to take the series from the Blue Jays. The Nats have won three straight series coming out of the break, and they will look for number four. This is a big opportunity for the Nats in the Wild Card race.
Blake Butera is making a couple tweaks to his lineup. Surprisingly, Dylan Crews is out after a big night. Following a key error, CJ Abrams will be at DH, while Nasim Nunez mans shortstop. Vivas will be at second while Brady House is at third. Harry Ford is behind the dish. Zack Littell will take the mound this afternoon.
After suffering an injury yesterday, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is out of the lineup. Kazuma Okamoto will replace him at first base. Davis Schneider will make his first start of the series at second base. Alejandro Kirk will be back behind the plate. Young Trey Yesavage will be on the mound for the Jays.
