Washington Nationals vs Atlanta Braves game thread

The red hot Washington Nationals were stopped in their tracks last night, but not by the Braves. Mother nature delayed the Nationals chance to win a fifth straight game. Tonight they will be back in action, taking on the Atlanta Braves.

With Dylan Crews going on the IL, Robert Hassell III will make his big league debut, batting seventh and playing center field. Jacob Young is not on the IL, but he is still not in the lineup after colliding with the wall in Baltimore. That means Alex Call will play right field. Call is the only pure right handed hitter in the lineup.
