The Nationals had a surprising outburst at the plate last night, but that looks to be an anomaly. They were held to three runs or less in seven of their last nine games. Today they put Giolito on the mound for the first time, which should give the Mets a chance to get back on track at the plate. Harvey has been showing some better numbers as of late, so look for New York to ride him to a win.
