The Cleveland Guardians and the Washington Nationals duke it out again with the series on the line on Wednesday at Nationals Park.
The Guardians evened the series at 1-1 emphatically after routing the Nationals 9-1 in Tuesday’s Game 2. Cleveland got a terrific game from starter Ben Lively, who allowed one earned run in 5.1 innings, and their amazing bullpen. Carlos Santana is accounted for 4 of the 9 runs the Guardians scored on Tuesday. Santana opened the scoring with a 3-run blast in the first inning and scored a run on a wild pitch by Nationals reliver Eduardo Salazar.
After scoring 10 runs to beat the Guardians in a high-scoring win in Game 1 (10-9), the Nationals’ offense went silent on Tuesday as they only scored one run and batted 4 for 28 behind the plate. Washington is batting .239 with 169 runs and pitching a 5.30 ERA, which puts them 27th in the MLB in that stat category.

Our Cleveland Guardians vs Washington Nationals Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Nationals find success again vs. lefty, win series.
The Nationals are hitting decently in their last five games, batting .250 with 5.5 runs per game. On Wednesday, the Nats will take on a lefty, Logan Allen (3.46 ERA). Interestingly, Washington has scored 9.0 runs per game in their last five matches against a lefty hurler. Nationals projected starter Michael Soroka (5.47 ERA) has given up four runs in back-to-back starts, and posted a 2.70 ERA over his last three starts against the Guardians. Yet, despite dispatching a weaker starter on Wednesday, the Nationals’ success against lefties as of late makes them a ticking time bomb against Allen, who had surrendered 7 earned runs in a 3-13 loss to the Boston Red Sox two weeks ago. Our betting prediction for the Washington Nationals vs. the Cleveland Guardians: The Nationals will win.
