Lineups Game 148: Nats vs. Marlins

It's a spectacular Saturday afternoon in the nation's capital. Maybe the matchup between the Nationals and the Marlins is nothing to get excited about, but surely there are worse places to be on such a beautiful day than the ballpark, right?

The Nats are looking to get their second straight win (and 10 of 12) against Miami and are hoping Patrick Corbin can do his part. The left-hander is making his 30th start of the season, his 168th start as a National. He probably has two more after this game, and maybe he can finish it off with some good performances after everything he's been through.

The Marlins send Valente Bellozo to the mound, and the rookie right-hander was really good when he faced the Nats in Miami last week, throwing six scoreless innings on 85 pitches, outperforming MacKenzie Gore (who had a no-hit effort that night). The Nationals will need to have some better at-bats tonight, with the top hitters best scoring early, as they have done each of the last two nights.
