Washington has won four of six meetings this season after defeating the Braves 2-1 behind Jake Irvin, who pitched six shutout innings and Atlanta was held to six hits. Mackenzie Gore will look to bounce back from a bad outing against the New York Mets on Monday after not allowing more than two earned runs in seven consecutive starts. Gore has one appearance against Atlanta this season and gave up one earned run on six hits in 5 1/3 innings. The Braves have lost five of nine games and have fallen eight games back of Philadelphia in the NL East. Charlie Morton comes off six shutout innings against Oakland, but his previous start was a disaster and it was versus the Nationals, who scored eight runs on 12 hits off Morton in 5 2/3 innings. The UNDER is 7-0-1 in Morton's past eight starts against a team that scored two or fewer runs its previous game. The Braves are 5-0 UNDER following a loss and 7-3 UNDER their past 10 games overall. Take the Nationals and the UNDER as a Max Play.
