Nationals road record is 47-33, Dodgers home record is 59-22.

Game 1
Nationals: This is the Nationals' best lineup, although manager Dave Martinez did not always have the luxury of using it each day as he attempted to guide a veteran team over the course of a season. But this is the group that started the NL Wild Card Game and that Martinez will likely lean on throughout the postseason. Ryan Zimmerman and Matt Adams could get a start at first base, but they will also serve as right- and left-handed pinch-hitting threats off the bench, along with Brian Dozier against lefties.

Dodgers: When opponents started a left-handed pitcher, the Dodgers went 30-22 (.577), compared to 76-34 (.691) against righties in 2019. In September, rookie Gavin Lux generally sat against lefties and Enrique Hernández played the outfield. The Dodgers were 0-1 against Corbin this year, and they have a 9-5 record over his career.

Thanks for starting a game day thread for the Nats game tonight.  It should be a good game, if Nats could steel one of these games in LA things could get interesting.  Interesting stat on LA’s record against left handed pitchers.  Hopefully Corbin will be on top of his game tonight.  He did not have a good last outing.  Lets Go Nats.  The pictures of Kuzy going nuts when the Nats rallied in the Wild card game were hilarious.  He really got into it and even did his bird celebration.

Kuzy was high...

Game is on TNT as Cardinals and Braves are on TBS in case anyone can’t find the game.

Not the start we wanted.  Corbin walks 4 batters, come on throw strikes.  I can’t remember ever seeing  a team score a run without hitting the ball.

this ump sucks ass

[ArJunaZ]

I am turning the game off. The little league teams I coached made less mistakes than these Nats.

[4 Caps]

Its time to put Zimmerman in at first base.  Kendrick has two errors, the last one costing us a run.  Can’t have that in a game this important. 

[richkrt99]

This is about the most boring playoff game in history


Geez. Four hours of slow disappointment

[richkrt99]

I spoke too soon. Jesus Strickland. How long does it take to give up two home runs in the 9th
Could we possibly drag this blood letting out any longer

[richkrt99]

It’s only the 8th dumbass

[richkrt99]

I ain’t no quitter. I’m sticking with this. 
The Nats could score 6 runs in the ninth when they’ve had what?  2 hits all night
 

[richkrt99]

Um...they only have 1 hit jackass

[richkrt99]

Two hits...like I said buttwad

[richkrt99]

We call this a Nats rally
