Journeymen meet as Marlins face Nationals

WASHINGTON -- If the weather cooperates, a pair of well-travelled right-handers will face off Tuesday at Nationals Park.

The Miami Marlins' Vance Worley (2-3, 5.70 ERA) is due to oppose Washington's Edwin Jackson (4-3, 2.93 with the Nationals), although rain is in the forecast.

Worley has pitched for five major league teams. He was in spring training with the Nationals this year after making 35 appearances (four starts) for the Baltimore Orioles last year.

"He can do anything for you at any time," Marlins first baseman Justin Bour said.
