Washington Nationals vs Philadelphia Phillies Prediction: Bad Dream to Forget for Nationals

After losing 1-10 in the previous game, Washington Nationals won’t be feeling themselves at home. Going in the game, we can expect a reasonable comeback from the Nationals; however, Philadelphia Phillies is quite strong on paper and will be playing with a winning momentum under their belt. Nationals stand 5ht in the NL East rankings, with only 2 wins from their last 10 games. On the other hand, the Phillies stand 3rd with 2 wins from their last 10 games.

Misery for Washington Nationals continues as they register their 4th consecutive loss. The nationals were clean swept in their last home series by Braves and before that by Brewers. In the last game, only Josh Bell was able to score an RBI, and apart from that, no batter from the top order was able to make a decent contribution. Patrick Corbin will be determined despite a dismal start to 2022 and will try to turn things around, going 3-1 in his past four outings after going winless in his first nine. Corbin hasn’t been spectacular in his four outings, but he has shown improved command and profited from plenty of run support.

Winning the game 1-10 against Washington Nationals was certainly a turnaround for Philadelphia Phillies. Before that win, the Phillies were clearly struggling as they lost to Brewers and Marlins. Going in the game, Zack Wheeler will be the key as he carries his 2.84 ERA and has only given five runs from his last 31 2-3 innings of work. Kyle Schwarber, Nick Castellanos, J.T Realmuto, Didi Gregorius, and Yairo Munoz will be looking to continue batting and carrying their fine form.

For the upcoming game, we can back Nationals to win and total to be slightly above 10.5 as the previous game. However, now we will see Nationals scoring a few more runs greater than in their previous game.

• Philadelphia Phillies to Win for 2.0
• Total Over 10.5 for 2.21
• Highest Scoring Innings - 5th for 3.7
