From one division rivals to the next, the Braves go southeast to the nation's capital of Washington D.C., and got the win of the series opener. Now, they look to get the series win against the Nationals.

The rivalry between the two division rivals dates all the way back to the 1969 season when both teams were members of the National League East Division. The Braves and Nationals began playing games against each other in 2005, and the rivalry has gotten more intense through the years. Atlanta holds a 366-349 lead in the all-time series against the Nationals franchise, and the Braves have won over 54 percent of their home games during that stretch.

Despite not facing each other in the Postseason, the two teams have an combined 18 pennants, 15 division titles and 4 World Series titles. Both Atlanta and Washington D.C. are terrific baseball cities when their teams are playing winning baseball, and the fan bases have helped to grow this rivalry in recent seasons.
