Michael Lorenzen vs. Gio Gonzalez

Rubber match!

Lorenzen faces the Nats for the second time this year, after going 6 1/3 the last time he faced them in Cincinnati. The bullpen better look alive tonight, though, as Lorenzen has only gone 7 innings in 1 of his last 7 starts. Yeesh.

Meanwhile, like everyone else on the Nats staff, apparently, Gio has been pitching great lately. He's only given up 1 run in his last two starts.

Go Reds.
