Washington has flipped this series with offense the Giants didn't see coming. The Nats hung 4 on Monday and 6 last night, and they're rolling in at 4-1 over their last 5 — including a 14-1 thumping of Arizona last week. San Francisco is 27-41 and has now dropped 3 of 5, with both losses in this series at home where they're supposed to make their living.

The Giants' injury list reads like a depth chart. Tyler Mahle is on the shelf with a hamstring, Heliot Ramos is rehabbing a quad, Harrison Bader is out, and the bullpen is missing Jason Foley, Randy Rodriguez, Hayden Birdsong and Jose Butto. That's a lot of arms and bats to be without when you're already 14 games under .500.
One wrinkle worth noting: Washington hitters are just 6-for-31 lifetime against Ray. That's the lever San Francisco has — get Ray into the 6th with the lead and the bullpen mess matters less. If Griffin keeps pumping strikes the way he has all year, the Nats walk out of Oracle with a sweep and a road trip to remember.
