After a lengthy West Coast road trip, the Nationals return home, where they will play nine games in a row and 16 of their next 19.

With Brewers right-hander Jimmy Nelson on the mound, Ryan Zimmerman sits and the left-handed swinging Clint Robinson starts at first base. Robinson is batting .364 (4-for-11) with a double and three walks over his last seven games.
