 The Braves had an 11-8 edge in this series last season, with wins in seven of the last nine meetings. Atlanta's .627 win percentage against NL East opponents since the start of 2018 is the best by any NL team against its own division.

 The Braves are batting .187 against left-handed pitchers this year (28th in MLB), compared to .263 against righties (4th in MLB). That .076 difference is the largest by any MLB team (where vs. LHP is higher).

 Washington went without an extra-base hit for the first time this season in Sunday's 6-5 win over Baltimore, getting eight singles, seven walks and three hit batsmen. It ended a streak of eight straight games with at least one home run.

 In his first 12 games this season (all at home), Trea Turner hit .196 with one home run, two RBI and a .574 OPS. In seven games since then (all on the road), Turner is batting .433 with three homers, six RBI and a 1.252 OPS.

 Anibal Sanchez is 0-3 with a 9.69 ERA through three starts, matching his longest career streak of consecutive starts with a loss and at least four earned runs allowed (also in 2009 and 2016). He has an 18.00 first-inning ERA (6/3.0), allowing at least one run in the first inning of all three starts.

 Dansby Swanson has a team-high 14 RBI, tied for second most among MLB shortstops (Fernando Tatis Jr., 21; primary 2020 position is SS). Swanson is batting just .198 in 60 career games against Washington.

HP - Ortiz, 1B - Estabrook, 2B - Carlson, 3B - Whitson

Washington's Austin Voth will try to earn his first career win against the Atlanta Braves, who will dip into their bullpen for a starter when the two clubs meet Tuesday in the second game of a three-game set in Atlanta.
The Braves won the first game in dramatic fashion on Monday. They hit a pair of two-run homers in the ninth inning to overcome a three-run deficit, getting blasts from Adam Duvall and a walk-off from Dansby Swanson.

Nats' Voth takes aim at first career win against Braves

ATLANTA (AP)  Victor Robles denied a homer with a brilliant catch above the center-field wall and the Washington Nationals bounced back from a stunning loss to beat the Atlanta Braves 8-5 Tuesday night.
With every starter contributing to a 17-hit attack and Eric Thames driving in three runs, the Nationals overcame a 5-2 deficit with a four-run fifth inning.
