Washington Nationals Aim to Halt Four-Game Home Slide vs. Diamondbacks

The Nationals have dropped their last four home games, putting pressure on their playoff hopes. Arizona, sitting second in the NL West, looks to extend its winning ways by taking the series from Washington.

Key factors include the Nationals' young starting pitcher and the Diamondbacks' veteran slugger. A win for either side could significantly impact the late‑season race.
