It’s a spectacular Saturday afternoon in the nation’s capital. Maybe the matchup between the Nationals and Marlins isn’t anything to get excited about, but there are surely worse places to be on such a lovely day than the ballpark, right? The Nats look to make it two in a row (and 10 out of 12) against Miami, and they’ll hope Patrick Corbin does hi

Reliever Jacob Webb appears the closest to reinstatement after Thursday night’s scoreless inning with Triple-A Norfolk. Manager Brand

DETROIT – The storyline for the game tonight at Detroit in the series-opener for the Orioles was not just would their offense finally get going. It was would they get a hit or even a baserunner? Their batters who had scored just 15 runs their past seven games, were going down quickly and too many times taking called third strikes. They were getting

It has flown under the radar a bit, but DJ Herz has turned into the Nationals’ best starting pitcher over the last two months. Since returning from a brief stint at Triple-A Rochester around the All-Star break designed to give him some extra rest, the rookie has taken the mound 10 times. And in those 10 games, he now owns a 2.76 ERA and 1.082 WHIP,

CJ Abrams won’t get a chance tonight to see if he can continue his recent power surge at the plate. The Nationals shortstop was scratched from the lineup after reporting a sore left shoulder, the result of a diving play during Thursday night’s 6-3 loss to the Marlins.

Thursday was not a good night for the Nationals, who did so many things wrong during the course of a 6-3 loss to the Marlins that really should have been a win based on the way the game began and based on the way Mitchell Parker pitched. But it’s a new day, so they’ll try to bounce back tonight and win game two of the four-game series, with another
