The Washington Nationals experienced a tough loss to the Kansas City Royals on Tuesday, extended into 10 innings. They face the Royals again on Wednesday, aiming to bounce back, with rookie pitcher DJ Herz taking the mound.
Herz has struggled on the road but has performed better at home this season. The Royals will counter with veteran Michael Lorenzon, who is returning from injury and has recently excelled since a trade.
The upcoming matchup promises an exciting contest with playoff implications for the Royals.
