Aug 04, 2014 06:53 PM EDT

The Baltimore Orioles and Washington Nationals are playing live on the MLB schedule on Monday night and the interleague series is live at 7:05 pm ET as the rivals matchup at Nationals Park and the game has Kevin Gausman against Tanner Roark and both sides could use the win, as each are leading the east division and would like to pad that by another game.

The Orioles have now won seven out of 10 games over the past stretch and they have been hitting the ball well and they shut down the Mariners, but that's not saying too much. Gausman has been pitching well since getting called up and now the team has a tough task in the Nationals and Denard Span, who is coming in hot with a hit in 15 of his last 17 games and he is hitting over .430 in that dare I say it, span.

The Orioles are leading the AL East and they just took two of three against the Mariners at home and now they will stay local as they take on the Nats. The rivalry between these two teams is fresh and new and since they are in the NL and AL it adds some flavor to things and both have been successful, as each are leading their respective divisions this season.

The Orioles come into the game with 62 wins and the Nationals have 60 on the season and now the two teams will go at it. Roark is having a fine season out of nowhere and he has 11 wins and a sub 3.00 Era and that has been massive for the Orioles. The Orioles got a big win from the Mariners and that came after a leadoff home run from Nick Markakis and now the team is really rolling. The Orioles have a top ranked offense and their pitching has come along after struggling earlier in the season.

Baltimore comes into the matchup before playing against the Toronto Blue Jays and these games will be massive for the playoff race in the AL. Mark Buehrle is pitching in the game on Tuesday and the team comes in ranked 13th in ERA and the Orioles are looking to keep their division lead. The Nationals are coming into the matchup after a nice shutout win against the Phillies and they next will matchup with the Mets at home and that will have Gio Gonzalez against Zack Wheeler for the pitching matchup.
