WASHINGTON (Interstat) — The Milwaukee Brewers and Washington Nationals will play a day-night doubleheader Sunday at Nationals Park, with the Brewers seeking to extend their series-winning streak to three games.

Milwaukee (18-14) has taken the first two games of the four-game set, winning 4-1 on Saturday and 6-1 on Friday. The Brewers lead the National League Central by one game over the Chicago Cubs. Washington (15-19) sits fourth in the NL East, 6½ games behind the New York Mets.

The afternoon game will feature Brewers right-hander Chad Patrick (2-1, 3.86 ERA). The evening game will see right-hander Zack Littell (0-4, 5.40 ERA) make his first start of the season after moving from the bullpen. The Nationals had not announced their starters for either game as of Saturday night.

The weather forecast for game time is 60 degrees with clouds.

Players to Watch

Milwaukee’s Kyle Harrison, who earned the win Saturday with six innings of one-run ball, has been dominant in his past two starts, allowing one earned run over 12 innings while striking out 17. He is not scheduled to start Sunday but could be available in relief.

Washington’s Foster Griffin matched Harrison on Saturday, tossing six scoreless innings with three strikeouts, but took the loss. In his last three starts, Griffin has a 1.50 ERA and 18 strikeouts over 18 innings.

Recent History

The Nationals won three of four in Milwaukee from April 10-12, but the Brewers have answered by winning the first two games of this series. Milwaukee’s offense has scored 10 runs in the two games, while Washington has managed only two.
