St. Louis at Washington

Washington looks to wrap it up tonight as it goes for the sweep of the Cardinals, who have been no match for the Nationals' pitching and it won't get any better for them tonight as they have to face Patrick Corbin. The left-hander finished the regular season 14-7 with a 3.25 ERA and he did his best work at home where he was 8-2 and 2.40 with an opponent batting average of .199. Dakota Hudson has one start in the playoffs and he gave up four runs (one earned) on five hits in 4 2/3 innings against Atlanta. Hudson had a 4.13 ERA on the road compared to 2.75 at home. St. Louis has lost six NLCS games in a row and the Cardinals have lost eight of their last playoff road games. The Nationals are 13-3 in Corbin's last 16 home starts and they have won 39 of their last 55 overall and 37 of their last 52 home contests. Play the Nationals as a Max Play Playoffs Game of the Year.
