Well, there were no lack of fireworks in Game 1 of this series yesterday where the Nationals beat the Giants 3-0. Bryce Harper was hit by a pitch and charged the mound in a bench clearing brawl and you can be sure tensions will be high in this game.
The Nationals have won 3 of their last 4 games and they are atop the NL East with a pretty comfortable 8.5 game lead the New York Mets and Atlanta Braves.
The Giants had won 2 in a row before the loss to the Nats yesterday and they are in 4th place in the NL West 11 games back of the Colorado Rockies.
Washington Nationals
This season the Nationals pitching has been decent ranking 14th in the Majors in ERA, but the lineup has been their strength scoring the most runs in baseball.
Harper leads the Nats in HR and RBI and while he may play in this one he is likely facing a suspension.
In their win over the Giants in the first game of this series they scored 3 runs on 8 hits and while they also gave up 8 hits Washington held San Francisco scoreless.

Free Washington Nationals vs. San Francisco Giants MLB Prediction:
Even though the Nationals lead the Majors in runs scored their lineup has not been lighting up the scoreboard as of late. Also, in the last 6 games between these teams in San Francisco the total has gone Under, which is a trend that will continue tonight.
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: UNDER the Number
Both pitcher’s in tonight’s match up have had their issues on the season and while Gonzalez has not looked good in his last 2 road starts Samardzija has been decent as of late. I think he will have a good start tonight and the Giants will take this Game 2 in a low scoring game.
