Ozzie Albies bats cleanup, Murphy gets the day off

The Braves take on the Nationals in Washington, as Spencer Strider duels Josiah Gray. You can read more about the pitching matchup in the game preview here.

As far as lineups go, we have a good old lineup debate for today. Ozzie Albies bats cleanup again, but this time against a right handed pitcher, which he has historically not had as much success against, batting from the left side. Elsewhere, Travis d’Arnaud gets the start at catcher and Sean Murphy gets the day off in favor of Marcell Ozuna at DH. Eddie Rosario starts in left field.
