The Washington Nationals took game one from the Cubs and will look to carry that momentum into game two. The Nats will send Patrick Corbin to the mound while the Cubs will go with Jameson Taillon. Corbin is Williamson is 6-10 with a 4.89 ERA and Taillon is 3-6 with a 6.15 ERA. Washington is 6-5 against the Cubs over the last 11. Washington is putting up 4.19 runs a game and has a team ERA of 4.85 ERA with a 1.49 WHIP. The Cubs have lost three of their last four games. Chicago is putting up 4.65 runs and has a team ERA of 4.12 ERA with a 1.27 WHIP. The Nationals have won six of their last nine road games. Taillon has struggled at home, giving up 15 runs in his last three starts. He has given up nine runs in his last three starts against the Nationals. The Cubs have lost eight of their last ten home games. I like the Nationals in this game, Yesterday's game was close and I expect the same in this one so I will take the +1.5 runs and the Nationals.

Play on Washington +1.5 runs
