After a huge win yesterday, the Nats are looking for a series win against a Wild Card competitor in the D-Backs. They will have to do it without a huge piece of their lineup, with Curtis Mead in Boston now. However, they do get an infusion of power with Brady House back in the fold.
With Mead gone, Brady House will be the third baseman in this one and he will hit 5th. Andres Chaparro is in the 2 spot at DH and Dylan Crews is hitting third, playing left field. Luis Garcia Jr. is back in the lineup, but in the 8 spot with a lefty on the mound. Harry Ford will get the nod behind the plate to close out this series. Miles Mikolas will get the start with no opener in front of him.
The D-Backs haven’t made any trades but they have made some changes to the lineup. Adrian Del Castillo, Max Kepler and Tyler Locklear are in the starting lineup in this contest. Gabriel Moreno will be back behind the plate as well. Another soft tossing rookie in Kohl Drake will be on the mound.

This will be a different looking Nats team with Mead gone, but the show must go on. Brady House will slide in, and the best offense in baseball will look to keep rolling. We cannot forget how important this game still is. Follow along in the comments down below and let’s go Nats!
