Rating: 5*

The Nats are 10-1 in Stephen Strasburg's last 11 road starts and he's 7-0 with a 1.72 ERA while yielding more than two runs only once in eight road outings this season. He's 3-2 with a 3.53 ERA in seven career starts versus the Diamondbacks who turn to Archie Bradley (4-6, 4.17). He has struggled at home this season going 1-3 with a 5.15 ERA. The D'Backs have among the worst home records in baseball and they're 0-9 in their last nine during Game 1 of a series. Huge advantage Nats.
