The Padres come into this game with a 63-51 record overall and they have won two games in a row.

On the other side of this matchup is the Nationals who sit with a 37-76 record overall and they have gone lost five of their last six games. In the last game against the Chicago Cubs, the offense only scored two runs and that led to the four-run defeat. The Nationals pitching is giving up 5.56 runs per game which is 30th in the league.
