Sanchez looks to keeping rolling vs. Nationals

Toronto will have an off-day on Thursday before returning to action for a three-game set at Rogers Centre against the Nationals starting at 7:07 p.m. ET on Friday. Aaron Sanchez (3-5, 4.33 ERA) will open a series that could see the return of sluggers Josh Donaldson and Steve Pearce. Sanchez is coming off two solid starts in which he has gone at least six innings while allowing two runs or less. Washington will turn to Gio Gonzalez.
