Washington at Oakland

Washington is a powerhouse on offense, tops in baseball in runs scored and on-base percentage, and third in homers. The Nationals are 18-10 on the road, including 12-5 away vs. a team with a winning home record. They have yet to lose on this road trip, sweeping San Francisco, then pounding out 20 hits in Friday's 13-3 opener. Oakland's offense is #26 in runs scored, and #27 in on-base percentage. Oakland starter Daniel Mengden (13.50 ERA) got pounded at Cleveland in his lone start. He struggled badly in 2016 as a rookie with a 6.50 ERA in 72 innings, including going 0-7 with a 6.86 ERA at home. The Athletics are 3-10 in interleague games, while the Nationals are 15-7 on the road against a right-handed starter. Take Washington.
