The Washington Nationals finally had a big offensive performance last night, scoring 12 runs against the Mets. James Wood had a massive game, hitting rockets all over the yard. This afternoon, the offense will look to keep rolling with a different cast of characters.
The Nats lineup is very different to the one we saw last night. James Wood, Dylan Crews and CJ Abrams are out, while Brady House, Nasim Nunez and Keibert Ruiz are in. House has been the Nats hottest hitter this spring and he will look to keep that up today. We will also see Christian Franklin, who is battling for a roster spot. Jake Irvin will be on the mound as he fights to keep his spot in the rotation.
The Cardinals have plenty of their starters in this lineup. Rookie JJ Wetherholt is likely to make the team and he will lead off. We will also see the likes of Alec Burleson, Nolan Gorman and Victor Scott. The Nats saw new Cardinals signing Dustin May not too long ago and will be seeing him again today. May can be nasty when he is at his best.

This is a TV game for the Nats, so that is exciting. Most of the Nats stars are not in the lineup today, but we will get to see Brady House, the team’s hottest bat. Jake Irvin is also likely to go pretty deep into this game. Follow along in the comments below and let’s go Nats!
