Jason Bergmann is a good strikeout pitcher and Philly is a strikeout prone offense. Bergmann's weakness is opponents batting average. Philly can hit, but not on the road. Their most recent road batting averages were .206, .194, .129, .263, .200, .206. Cole Hamels is a dominant pitcher but Philly can lose even when he dominates. It already happened once vs these same Nationals when Cole Hamels allowed 1 earned run in 8 innings of work and the Nationals won 1-0. The Nationals started the season with 5 wins and 15 losses in first 20 games, but they are 15-11 in last 26.
