After a very complete performance last night, the Nats are back in action tonight. They split the first two games of the series, so the Nats will look to secure at least a split tonight. Grabbing a split against a team the caliber of the Braves would be big for this young group.
As usual, manager Blake Butera made a few alterations to his lineup. Brady House is back at third base, which pushed Jorbit Vivas to second. Jacob Young was moved out of the three hole and is hitting 6th tonight. Keibert Ruiz is back in the lineup after Drew Millas started the first two games of the series. Zack Littell will look to bounce back from a rough outing last time. He will need to keep the ball in the yard.
The Braves are not making a ton of changes tonight. Mike Yastrzemski will be back in left field, but otherwise it is the same group as last night. Jonah Heim will catch again, which pushes Drake Baldwin to DH. The Braves decided to call up 20 year old Didier Fuentes to make this start. Fuentes is one of the youngest players in the league, but his stuff is loud and his control is very good for a 20 year old.
