Ryan Zimmerman is starting at first base and hitting sixth and playing first base against the Dodgers on Wednesday in Game 5 of the NLDS Zimmerman broke open Monday's Game 4 win with a three-run homer, and the long-time National will be back in the lineup even against a right-hander in Walker Buehler. Victor Robles (hamstring) is still not ready to go, so he's on the bench for the third consecutive game. The full lineup: Trea Turner SS, Adam Eaton RF, Anthony Rendon 3B, Juan Soto LF, Howie Kendrick 2B, Zimmerman 1B, Kurt Suzuki C, Michael A. Taylor in CF and Stephen Strasburg on the mound and hitting ninth in the winner-take-all contest.
