Nothing wrong with playing .500 ball on the road. The Nats are just a bad match against these types of teams that can put up 10 runs with ease each night. We are better suited to play low scoring games against teams like the Twins, Braves, Marlins, O's, etc.. For us to win any of the games this week we are going to need at least 8+ runs.
Actually, the Marlins are #2 and the Braves #4 in scoring in the NL. But, more to the point,Cleveland has been shutout in 2 of its 6 NL road games, and only 3 in two others. That's 4 of 6 in which they've been very beatable. In a 5th of the 6th, in which they scored 7, 3 were unearned as the Marlins were auditioning for the Keystone Cops. I think we'll take 2 of 3.
