Match Preview:

The Nationals started their series against the Cubs on a winning note but shortly ran out of steam as they conceded the series after losing the last two games. The Padres, on the contrary, lost their series against the Miami Marlins in the first two games but the former struck a telling blow in the series finale with a convincing win. Jake Cronenworth’s first-inning grand slam was just the beginning of the maddening belligerence that the Padres piled upon the Marlins.
