Philadelphia has totaled 24 runs during its three-game winning streak and scored 29 during a four-game run over the Nationals. With the offense getting on track, the Phillies need some better outings from their starting pitchers.

Philadelphia’s starters have a 9.00 ERA, and Joe Blanton will try to bounce back from a rough outing when he takes the ball in this one.

Last season, Blanton went 1-0 with a 5.40 ERA in three starts versus the Nationals, whose starting pitching is in even worse shape than Philadelphia’s.

Washington’s starters have a 9.29 ERA, and the team has allowed at least eight runs in four of its seven games.

Shairon Martis looks to lead the Nationals to their first victory when he takes the mound. For the best in MLB baseball betting head to the Bodog online sportsbook.
