Washington Nationals: Nats Interleague Series Preview

The Washington Nationals continue their interleague play against the American League Central by venturing into the Motor City to take on the Detroit Tigers.

The last time the Nats and Tigers squared off in Detroit was in 2013, the season in which Detroit lost to the Boston Red Sox in the ALCS.

2013 was an excellent year for the Tigers. Miguel Cabrera won his second consecutive A.L. MVP award, Max Scherzer won his first Cy Young Award, and Anibal Sanchez led the league in ERA (2.57).

Now, Cabrera is a shell of his former self, Scherzer picked up two more Cy Young Awards, and Sanchez revived his career in the National League East.
