Coming off the high of winning a series in Truist Park against the Atlanta Braves, the Washington Nationals came crashing back down to earth at PNC Park this past weekend.

The Nats will now look to rebound with their third four-game series in four series so far this season, this time, it’s against the Arizona Diamondbacks, who come to D.
