Drake Baldwin leads off again, facing the righty Miles Mikolas

The Braves are going for another series win at home against their division rival Nationals. Reynaldo Lopez is taking the mound, with Miles Mikolas starting for Washington, in a matchup of unconvincing righties.

Drake Baldwin gets the nod at leadoff against the righty starter, as Walt Weiss continues to swap him and Acuna at the top of the order. Elsewhere, Dominic Smith returns to the lineup, DHing and batting sixth, right ahead of the remnants of Austin Riley. Mike Yastrzemski and Jim Jarvis make up the back of the lineup.
