Washington has scored two runs or fewer in four of their last five games, but they have won two of those outings with great pitching. The Nationals are starting Parker, who has allowed at least three earned runs in five straight starts. The Rangers are going with deGrom, who has allowed two earned runs or fewer in five straight outings. Texas has really struggled on the road this year, but deGrom should lead them to a victory. Take the Rangers -1.5 here.
