Washington Nationals vs Pittsburgh Pirates Game Thread

After a comeback win led by the youngsters last night, the Nats will look to secure a series win. It was very nice to see Dylan Crews and Brady House homer last night. Hopefully they can use this as a springboard for the rest of the season.

The lineup will be very similar to last night. Only one change has been made and that is behind the plate. Jorge Alfaro will be catching instead of Riley Adams. The rest of the lineup is totally unchanged. Andrew Alvarez will be making his third MLB start. Hopefully he can thrive against a weaker Pirates lineup.

The Pirates also have a rookie on the mound. However, Bubba Chandler is much more highly touted. He is the 7th ranked prospect in all of baseball and has big time stuff. In the lineup, the Pirates are making a few changes. Veteran Tommy Pham will enter the fray as will rookie Nick Yorke.

September has been a good month for the Nats. They are 8-3 so far in this final month of the season. Hopefully they can improve that mark this afternoon. I am excited to see how the Nats hitters look against the talented but raw Bubba Chandler. Follow along down below and let’s go Nats!
