May 15 - The Washington Nationals, finally free of their losing streak, will look to earn a split of their four-game road series against the Atlanta Braves on Thursday.
After dropping the first two games -- and extending their skid to a season-worst seven games -- the Nationals rallied for a 5-4 win on Wednesday night.
Washington will send right-hander Trevor Williams (2-4, 5.88 ERA) to face Atlanta right-hander AJ Smith-Shawver (2-2, 2.76) in the finale.
Williams will be looking to rebound after three subpar outings in which he posted a 1-2 record and a 7.
