Gio Gonzalez will face the Phillies Sunday. (Tommy Gilligan-USA TODAY Sports)With their magic number to clinch the National League East at 12, the Nationals host the Phillies Sunday afternoon for their series finale with a chance to win the four-game set. Gio Gonzalez will look to bounce back from a three-inning outing against the Braves Tuesday in a rematch against left-hander Adam Morgan. Two starts ago, Gonzalez outpitched Morgan, holding the Phillies to one run on two hits over six innings in Philadelphia on Aug. 31. After having three regulars take the day off in Saturday’s 3-0 win, the Nationals will have their usual lineup opposite Morgan, who limited the Nationals to two runs on three hits across 6 2/3 innings.
