Washington is a big park, great for pitchers, and the Atlanta Braves head out on the road ranked #18 in runs scored and #23 in slugging. At least starter Mike Foltynewicz (3.48 ERA) is on the mound, off a pair of strong performances allowing no runs in 14 innings. He has a 3.30 ERA on the road, but a 1-3 record as Atlanta doesn't score much for him away from home. Washington is on a 15-5-1 run UNDER the total, including 8-0-1 UNDER at home. The Nationals have Stephen Strasburg (7-2, 2.80 ERA) on the mound allowing two runs or less in five straight starts. Batters are hitting just .202 off him for the season with 89 Ks in 80+ innings and only 22 walks. He has faced Atlanta twice this season with a 2.45 ERA while striking out 21 in 14+ innings with three walks. The UNDER is 8-3-1 when Strasburg pitches, and this shapes up as a defensive duel. Play this game UNDER the total.
