Nationals try to build winning streak vs. Twins

The Washington Nationals will try to keep their offense humming when they host the Minnesota Twins in the middle game of their series on Tuesday. After mustering five runs over four losses, the Nationals scored five in a loss on Sunday and then erupted in a 12-3 win over the Twins on Monday night. The Nationals went 5-for-8 with runners in scoring position and equaled their season high in hits with 14. "I think a lot of us have had a tough week offensively," outfielder Eddie Rosario said.
