Looking to complete the first series sweep over their division foe in more than three years, the visiting Atlanta Braves will meet the Washington Nationals in the finale of a four-game set on Wednesday afternoon.

Atlanta (69-83) has followed a four-game losing streak with four straight victories, including two over Washington in a day-night doubleheader on Tuesday.
