WASHINGTON D.C. (CBSMiami) – Coming off a tough weekend series in Atlanta, the Miami Marlins road trip continues in a not-so-friendly ballpark.
The Marlins have been one of the National League’s top three teams since the calendar flipped from May to June but they’ll face a top two team this week in the division-leading Washington Nationals.
The two rivals opened up a three-game series last Monday, with Miami taking two of three from the Nats.
This time around it’ll be four games at Nationals Park, with the Marlins looking at a pitching gauntlet that begins Monday night against Cy Young candidate Max Scherzer.
