The Washington Nationals and Los Angeles Dodgers meet Saturday in MLB action at Dodger Stadium.

The Washington Nationals need a win here to snap a three-game losing streak. The Nationals have been shutout in their last two games and have scored four or more runs in two of their first four games. The Nationals have won 10 of their last 11 games when scoring four or more runs. Ryan Zimmerman leads the Nationals with five hits while Juan Soto and Starlin Castro have combined for eight hits and four RBI. The Washington Nationals didn’t have a starting pitcher at the time this article was published.

The Los Angeles Dodgers look to build on their 6-2 record. The Dodgers have scored nine runs in their last three games and four or more runs in six of their first eight games. The Dodgers have won five straight games when scoring four or more runs. Justin Tuner leads the Dodgers with 12 hits and eight RBI while Corey Seager and Max Muncy have combined for 20 hits and 12 RBI. Julio Urias gets the ball, and he is 1-0 with a 1.29 ERA and six strikeouts this season. Urias is 0-0 with a 2.25 ERA and 11 strikeouts in his career against the Nationals.

The Nationals are 6-2 in their last 8 during game 2 of a series and 5-12 in their last 17 road games. The Dodgers are 4-1 in their last 5 Saturday games and 84-32 in their last 116 home games. The over is 4-1 in Nationals last 5 overall. The under is 4-1 in Dodgers last 5 overall. The Nationals are 18-37 in the last 55 meetings in Los Angeles. The under is 18-7-1 in the last 26 meetings in Los Angeles.

The Washington Nationals didn’t list a starting pitcher at the time this article was published, but I’m not sure it matters much. The Nats offense just isn’t producing right now, which includes back to back shutout losses. Urias also looked great in his season opener, so the Nationals will have their work cut out for them anyway. Hard not to side with the Los Angeles Dodgers in this spot.
