Phillies (29-33) vs Nationals (38-24)

Nationals Park

4:05PM EDT on CSN

Adam Morgan (1-5) 6.70 ERA

PHILLIES: Morgan’s spot in the Phillies’ rotation has been tenuous after his recent struggles, but he allowed three runs in six innings against the Cubs. It might have helped his cause, but he will need to keep it up.

Joe Ross (5-4) 2.92 ERA

NATIONALS: Ross has dominated the Phillies twice this season, earning two victories with a 0.61 ERA, although both were at Citizens Bank Park. In his last outing against the White Sox, he issued a season-high four walks and allowed five runs in four innings.
