After taking two out of three against the Cardinals, the Phillies welcome the Nationals to town. The Phillies have largely had the Nationals number lately, and based on the scheduled starters for the series, the Phillies should be able to earn some wins this week.
Record: 29-53 (Fifth place in National League East, 22 games back)
The last time they met
These teams met up for a five-game set in DC last month. The Phillies won the first four but faltered in the series finale on Father’s Day. The finale was televised exclusively on Peacock, which made a bunch of fans angry that they couldn’t watch the game on the holiday without spending an additional $5.
