Wood opened the scoring with a two-run homer off Zack Wheeler in the sixth inning and then tripled and scored the go-ahead run in the eighth.

Wood went 2-for-4 with a run, an RBI and three stolen bases against the Yankees in Wednesday's 5-2 win. Wood had struggled on the basepaths coming into Wednesday, as he had collected eight stolen bases but been caught seven times. He raised his percentage of success significantly against the Yankees, collecting three thefts -- all of which came against opposing starter Carlos Rodon -- without getting caught. Wood also had his first multi-hit effort since Aug. 21 and broke out of a six-game mini-slump during which he went 3-for-19.

Wood went 1-for-3 with two walks, a solo home run and a second run scored in Sunday's win over the Phillies. The 21-year-old rookie continues to make life miserable for opposing pitchers, with his fifth long ball of the season coming off Jeff Hoffman in the ninth inning. Over his last 21 games, Wood is slashing a stunning .373/.472/.640 with 11 extra-base hits (five doubles, three triples, three homers), four steals, 15 RBI and 18 runs.

Wood went 3-for-3 with a walk and a double in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Phillies. The rest of the Nationals' offense couldn't take advantage of the rookie's performance, but Wood continues to shine brighter as he grows more comfortable in the majors. Over his last 15 games, the 21-year-old is slashing an eye-popping .382/.460/.618 with 12 runs, 11 RBI and seven extra-base hits, including two homers. His 4-for-8 showing on the basepaths during that stretch highlights that he still has some rough edges to his skill set, but Wood looks as though he will live up to his billing as Washington's next franchise player.
