Pittsburgh returns home after not recording a hit yesterday. They’re hitting .195 with a .535 OPS over their last seven days while the Nationals are hitting .231 with a .664 OPS and CJ Abrams is not in the lineup tonight. Jake Irvin owns a 3.59 road ERA and has allowed two runs to his opponents in three of his last four road starts. Bailey Falter has been pitching better at home besides allowing five runs to Cincinnati in his last home start. Four of the Nationals last six road games have gone under the total, with one push, following a loss.
