107.

The first of three against the Nationals. Tomorrow’s is a 6:45 start time too, then a 1:00 game on Wednesday/

It is Max Scherzer starting for us tonight. And James Wood, taking a few years off acting, leads off for the Nationals. I was trying to think of the best movies I’ve seen with James Wood in. I guess Casino. Maybe Once Upon a Time in America. Or perhaps the small role in Entourage.

I’m still not a fan of Nathan Lukes at the top of the order against a lefty.
