He didn't make an appearance in last night's 8-7 Nationals win, but Adam Dunn is in the White Sox lineup for tonight's contest. Dunn will hit cleanup for Chicago and will play left field. It'll be interesting to see what type of response Dunn gets from the Nats Park crowd in his first plate appearance tonight. This will be Dunn's first game played at Nats Park since 2010. He wore a Nats jersey from 2009-2010 and slugged 78 home runs during his tenure in D.C. Dunn spoke yesterday about his return to the district and how he felt watching the Nats on their postseason run last season. Here are tonight's lineups: For the White Sox CF Alejandro De Aza 2B Jeff Keppinger RF Alex Rios LF Adam Dunn 1B Paul Konerko SS Alexei Ramirez 3B Conor Gillaspie C Tyler Flowers RHP Gavin Floyd For the Nats CF Denard Span RF Jayson Werth LF Bryce Harper 3B Ryan Zimmerman 1B Adam LaRoche SS Ian Desmond 2B Danny Espinosa C Kurt Suzuki P Jordan Zimmermann
