Espinosa went 1-for-4 with a two-run shot, his sixth home run of the season, in Tuesday's win over the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

His batting average is still hovering right around the Mendoza Line, but Espinosa at least finished up the month of May by hitting three home runs in his last six games. The clock is probably ticking on his stint as the Nats' starting shortstop, though, as Trea Turner continues to play well at Triple-A (.314/.378/.479 and a perfect 16-for-16 on stolen base attempts) and could get the call at any moment.
