Not a bad pitching matchup for us tonight here at Nationals Park, as Stephen Strasburg will oppose Phillies righty A.J. Burnett.
Strasburg hasn't allowed an earned run in his last 21 innings against the Phillies.
He went 2-0 with a 0.53 ERA in two home starts against the Phils last season.
Ryan Zimmerman is making his second big league start in left field tonight and again hitting fifth. The Nationals' lineup from 1-8 looks exactly as it did yesterday. So does the Phillies', in fact.
