Solano gets first major league start

After making a strong first impression last night by smacking a pinch hit, opposite-field double in his first major league at-bat, Jhonatan Solano will get another first tonight: he'll make his first big league start behind the plate. Solano will catch Chien-Ming Wang and hit eighth for manager Davey Johnson. Perhaps because of his past success against Marlins starter Josh Johnson, Roger Bernadina will get his first start since May 19 and will play right field, while Bryce Harper will move over to center. Here are tonight's lineups for both teams: For the Nationals LF Steve Lombardozzi CF Bryce Harper 3B Ryan Zimmerman 1B Adam LaRoche SS Ian Desmond 2B Danny Espinosa RF Roger Bernadina C Jhonatan Solano P Chien-Ming Wang For the Marlins SS Jose Reyes 2B Omar Infante 3B Hanley Ramirez RF Giancarlo Stanton 1B Logan Morrison CF Bryan Petersen C John Buck LF Chris Coghlan P Josh Johnson
