A look at what’s happening all around the major leagues Wednesday:

UNTIL OCTOBER
The Mets and Nationals wrap a three-game set in Washington, the last meeting between the NL East rivals until a season-ending series starting Oct. 2 in New York. Stephen Strasburg (8-6, 4.35 ERA) makes his first appearance since being pulled from his last start with back tightness. The right-hander threw just 60 pitches Aug. 30 in a win over Miami, ending a strong run of starts since he came off the disabled list following an oblique strain. Jacob deGrom (12-7, 2.40) goes for the Mets.
