A pair of three-time Cy Young Award winners square off when Clayton Kershaw and the Dodgers face Max Scherzer and the Nationals in a marquee matchup between the past two World Series champions. Los Angeles is looking for a three-game sweep of its first home series this season, and Dodgers starters are 5-0 in their last seven outings. Also, the Braves go for their fifth straight victory and a series sweep of NL East rival Philadelphia. Plus, AL MVP José Abreu and the White Sox try to win their 18th consecutive game when facing a left-handed starter. That would tie the major league record. Chicago gets its chance against Mike Minor and the Royals.
