This is an 8* play on the Washington Nationals.

The Nats will be gunning for the sweep tonight in the series finale versus San Francisco, and they appear to have a favorable matchup on the mound.

Jordan Zimmerman will toe the slab for the Nats. and he's coming off a couple solid starts. Zimmerman (6-5, 3.16 ERA) has tossed 15 2/3 scoreless innings in a couple of wins over the Braves in a home and away series. He's 3-3 with a 2.39 ERA at home, and 5-2 with a 2.38 ERA at night. The southpaw also owns San Francisco, going 3-1 with a 2.04 ERA in his last four versus the Giants.

San Francisco will hand the ball to Ryan Vogelsong, and the veteran is coming off a stinker. Vogelsong (6-6, 4.19 ERA) allowed four runs on seven hits over six innings in a loss to Miami his last time out. He's been terrible against the Nats, going 1-2 with a 7.94 ERA in his last five versus Washington.

Bryce Harper has five home runs in his last seven games versus San Francisco.

Take WAS.
