Philadelphia Phillies vs Washington Nationals Live Streaming. Roy Oswalt will start as scheduled Friday night, but instead of taking the hill for a club 17 games under .500 he’ll be wearing the uniform of the hottest team in the majors. After approving a trade to Philadelphia on Thursday, the three-time All-Star can extend his new team’s winning streak to nine when he makes his Phillies debut in the opener of a three-game set with the host Washington Nationals. Philadelphia Phillies vs Washington Nationals Live. Oswalt had been in the Houston organization for all 14 years of his professional career, but the Astros’ 42-59 record and the $21 million left on Oswalt’s contract through 2011 made it time for Houston to part with its ace. The Phillies, as they did for Cliff Lee at the 2009 trading deadline and Roy Halladay last offseason, were more than happy to swing a deal. Philadelphia vs Washington MLB Live Stream. Philadelphia agreed to send J.A. Happ and two prospects to Houston early Thursday, and when Oswalt decided to waive his no-trade clause later that afternoon, the deal was done.

The three-time All-Star might not have to worry about a lack of run production anymore. Philadelphia is averaging 5.8 runs and hitting .315 during its season-high winning streak, which stretched to eight with a 3-2, 11-inning win over Arizona on Thursday. It’s the Phillies’ longest win streak since a 10-game run July 8-21, 2009. Oswalt might have to wait a day or two to see Rollins behind him at shortstop. The 2007 NL MVP has missed three straight games with a bruised foot, and is considered day to day. Oswalt is 1-0 with a 2.14 ERA in four starts in the nation’s capital, but didn’t fare too well against the Nationals on May 31 in Houston. He gave up four runs over 2 1-3 innings before being ejected for arguing with an umpire in a 14-4 loss. Watch Philadelphia vs Washington MLB Live Streaming.
