WASHINGTON -- Giancarlo Stanton hit his NL-leading 15th home run and also doubled and singled in his latest power performance at Nationals Park, leading the Miami Marlins over Washington 3-2 Monday.

Louis Cardinals for the National League Wild Card, are in the drivers seat as they open the final series of the regular season, but they face a large task in the form of the Philadelphia Phillies.HOUSTON - The Philadelphia Eagles have done a good job of protecting Nick Foles despite having to piece together an offensive line hit hard by injuries.This week, the makeshift group has perhaps its biggest challenge to date: stopping J.J. Watt.Watt has scored two defensive touchdowns, leads the league with 24 quarterback hits, has seven sacks and has swatted down seven passes this season for the Houston Texans.He does things that defensive linemen dont do, Eagles coach Chip Kelly said. His contacts with the ball, its the most weve seen and weve faced. And then the ability to just disrupt things if he doesnt get to the quarterback by batting balls down is really a unique set of skills that he has ... Youve got to know where he is on every play.The Eagles were without two starters on the line last week and have employed five different starting configurations in six games. All-Pro guard Evan Mathis remains out, but centre Jason Kelce returned to practice this week after missing the last four games following sports hernia surgery and could play Sunday.I think theyve done a good job of filling in those spots, Watt said. Theyve had injuries along the way and theyve done a good job of putting guys in places and they know what theyre doing and they fit in well.The Eagles have allowed only two sacks in the last six games; Watt has piled up five in his last three.Houstons pass rush could get a boost with the return of top overall pick Jadeveon Clowney. The outside linebacker had one tackle in limited action last week after missing six games following arthroscopic surgery on his right knee.Coach Bill OBrien expects Clowney to play more on Sunday, but thinks it will be a while before hes on the field for most every play with Watt. OBrien said Clowney still has to improve his conditioning to be able to play 80 snaps a game.Even though Clowney isnt back to full strength, the Eagles are concerned about dealing with him and Watt at the same time.Now you add what can be two game wreckers to the front, Philadelphia offensive co-ordinator Pat Shurmur said. Those are two dynamic players. They can rush the passer, theyre hard to blockk when youre running the football, and if you throw the ball in and around them, theyve got a lot of reach and range, where they just dont tip it down, sometimes they pick it off.ddddddddddddome things to know about the Eagles-Texans game:OLD FRIENDS: The Eagles have seven players who were once Texans, led by linebackers DeMeco Ryans and Connor Barwin. Ryans played his first six seasons in Houston and is the teams all-time leading tackler with 636 stops. The Texans also drafted Barwin and he played in Houston from 2009-12, leading the team with 11 1/2 sacks in 2011.Four wonderful years for me, Barwin said. Obviously its a big game for both teams, though. Im excited to see a lot of those people, but once we start playing it will be back to business.MACLINS BACK: Eagles receiver Jeremy Maclin has starred for the Eagles in his return from a second ACL surgery that cost him all of last season. He leads the team with 39 catches for 632 yards and six touchdowns and is coming off a career-high 187 yards receiving.Coming back from injury is hard enough, and playing a skill position like he plays is even harder, Shurmur said. Hes done a tremendous job. Hes really battled through it.FOSTER RETURNS TO FORM: Houston running back Arian Foster is off to a great start in his return from back surgery that caused him to miss the last eight games of 2013. He is second in the NFL with 766 yards rushing despite missing one game with a hamstring injury.He is one game shy of setting the NFL record for most 100-yard games by an undrafted player with 32.RETURN TOUCHDOWNS: The Eagles need one return touchdown to tie the franchise record of eight set in 1952. Theyve scored on a kickoff return, a punt return, two blocked punts, two fumble returns and an interception return.MR. 300: Foles has four 300-yard passing games and needs one more to tie Sonny Jurgensen (1961) and Donovan McNabb (2004) for the most 300-yard passing games in franchise history during one season. He set a team record with 36 completions and had his third career 400-yard passing game last week.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
