In a road trip against three of the worst teams in the National League, the Washington Nationals stumbled, going 4-6. It was a missed opportunity for a team looking to take a step forward this season. However, they need to get back on the horse as they take on the Orioles in a rivalry game.
For the lineup, James Wood remains in the leadoff spot. He had some special moments on the road trip, but struggled with consistency. Nathaniel Lowe will bat second, which is the highest he has been in the lineup I believe. Jose Tena will get the start at third, as Mitchell Parker takes the mound looking to keep up his stellar start to the season.
