Volpe went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in a loss to the Nationals on Wednesday.
The Yankees were mostly quieted by MacKenzie Gore and a trio of Washington relievers, but Volpe did well in collecting a pair of hits. The shortstop also recorded a stolen base, giving him 25 on the season -- one more than he recorded as a rookie last year. In additional to the theft total, Volpe has improved his batting average from .209 to .252 and reduced his strikeout rate from 27.8 percent to 22.0 percent, though he's also displayed less power, as he has just 11 homers through 133 games after going deep 21 times in 159 contests in 2023.
