San Francisco at Washington

San Francisco can't score, ranked #28 in runs scored, and #29 in on-base percentage. And they can't pitch when left-hander Matt Moore (3-12, 5.88 ERA) is on the mound, as he's winless in his last eight starts. He has allowed 42 hits, 26 runs in his last six starts (33+ innings). Moore has a 7.24 ERA on the road where batters are hitting .317 off him. He comes off a loss to the Cubs allowing five runs, eight hits in six innings, so he's not fooling anyone. The Giants are 5-16 when he starts, including 3-9 on the road. First-place Washington has ace Max Scherzer (12-5, 2.23 ERA) going, with a 210-38 strikeout to walk ratio. He pitched a complete-game victory in his one start against the Giants this year, giving up one run and five hits. The Nationals are 35-17 when he starts, and 20-6 when he faces a losing team.
