Ever since Tuesday night’s comeback win over the Atlanta Braves, the Washington Nationals have won four of their last five games. This includes taking two of the first three games at Citi Field against the New York. Over those three games, Washington’s starting rotation has been as advertised, especially last night as Gio Gonzalez kept the Mets off the board while the Nats offense managed nine singles and only one run.
Stephen Strasburg, Max Scherzer, and Gonzalez have combined to give up three earned runs in this series against a New York offense that is fourth in RBIs in the National League.
