Houston came through in the clutch with some good at-bats and stellar relief pitching to win Game 3. Now the Astros have to do it again against Patrick Corbin while they will attempt a bullpen game with Jose Urquidy starting for the Astros. Corbin has made six appearances in the postseason, including two starts and he pitched one scoreless inning on Tuesday. The left-hander went 8-2 with a 2.40 ERA at home during the regular season and he was 7-2 after the All-Star break. The Nationals are still 8-1 their last nine playoff games and 42-17 over their last 59 overall. The Nats have won five of Corbin's last six starts and 14 of his last 17 home starts. Also, Washington is 38-16 its last 54 home games and 23-9 when following a loss. Look for Washington to cash in on the missed opportunities it had on Friday, so play the Nationals.
