Game 17 lineups: Nats vs. Giants

Surely this is the most important official release of the day in Washington: the Nationals' starting lineup for their series finale against the Giants!

While much of the world is focused on a different building in a different part of town, baseball fans are most interested in what takes place here on South Capitol Street, where the Nats are trying to take back-to-back games and win this three-game series in order to head out on a road trip to Miami and Colorado with a winning record.

Patrick Corbin will be tasked with getting as many outs as possible before handing it over to the you-know-what. Corbin has pitched well in his first three starts for the Nationals, especially his last outing against the Pirates (one run, 11 strikeouts in seven innings) but has yet to receive a decision. So perhaps today's the day that finally changes.
