Call went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Phillies.

His fourth-inning long ball off Cristopher Sanchez was one of only two hits for the Nationals on the night. Call has been impressive since his late-July promotion and ascension into a starting role following the Lane Thomas trade, slashing .373/.425/.567 over his last 18 games with two homers, three steals, six runs and 12 RBI, but there's nothing in the 29-year-old's track record to suggest he'll keep it up for much longer. Dylan Crews is also slashing .300/.396/.600 over his last 10 games for Triple-A Rochester, and a promotion for the top prospect could bump Call to the bench.
