Whitcomb went 1-for-2 with two walks Friday against the Orioles.
Whitcomb was originally called up to replace Alex Bregman in the lineup, but his defensive versatility has allowed him to see consistent playing time -- most recently filling in for Yordan Alvarez (neck) on Friday. Whitcomb has now started seven straight games and has gotten on base at a .423 clip while striking out at just a 19.2 percent clip across his first 26 plate appearances in the majors.
